ABINGDON, VIRGINIA - United States Attorney John P. Fishwick Jr. announced today that a local woman has pled guilty to a pair of counterfeiting charges in the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia in Abingdon last Friday.
Kendra Lane Dalton, 38, pled guilty last week to two counts of attempting to use counterfeit United States.
“No matter the scale of the operation, bringing charges against those who attempt to undermine our financial system by counterfeiting money must be taken seriously," United States Attorney John P. Fishwick Jr. said today.
Last week in District Court, Dalton admitted to attempting to pass counterfeit U.S. currently on two separate occasions, November 8, 2015 and November 9, 2015.
The investigation of the case was conducted by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office and the United States Secret Service. Assistant United States Attorney Jennifer Bockhorst is prosecuting the case for the United States.
