Duo Stole VA. Senator's Identity, Bought Marijuana

After investigating, the Virginia State Police contacted the CHP after they found out the senator's personal information was being used in the Sacramento area.
After further investigation, authorities discovered that Sky Manriquez, 21, and Bernell Bryan Washington, 24, opened several credit cards in the senator's name.
The duo also changed the senator's address to a place located on Fulton Avenue. After serving a search warrant to the address, investigators recovered several items of evidence including receipts which indicated the suspects purchased medical marijuana using the senator's fake accounts.
Arrest warrants have now been issued for the two suspects. Washington apparently has an active $60,000 arrest warrant charging him with identity theft, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and possession of ammunition by a prohibited person. Manriquez has an active $25,000 arrest warrant charging her with identity theft.
