   Beth Phillips, United States Attorney for the Western District of Missouri,
   announced today that a former officer for the University of Central Missouri
   Police Department and his wife have pleaded guilty in federal court to their
   roles  in  an  identity theft conspiracy that targeted students at the
   university.

   Amanda  J.  Drake, 30, of Warrensburg, Mo., pleaded guilty before U.S.
   District Judge Fernando J. Gaitan this morning to the charge contained in an
   Aug. 12, 2009, federal indictment. Her husband, James B. Drake, 46, pleaded
   guilty to the same charge on Jan. 4, 2010.

   By pleading guilty, the Drakes admitted that they stole a University of
   Central Missouri student enrollment list containing names, Social Security
   numbers  and  dates  of  birth.  That identity information was used to
   fraudulently obtain credit cards in the students’ names. The government
   contends there were more than 250 victims of the conspiracy, with a total
   loss of more than $30,000.

   During the time of the conspiracy, in May 2009, James Drake was a police
   officer with the University of Central Missouri Police Department.

   Under  federal  statutes, James and Amanda Drake are each subject to a
   sentence of up to 20 years in federal prison without parole, plus a fine up
   to  $250,000 and an order of restitution. A sentencing hearing will be
   scheduled after the completion of a presentence investigation by the United
   States Probation Office.

   This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney William L. Meiners.
   It was investigated by the University of Central Missouri Police Department
   in conjunction with the FBI.
