NEW YORK, August 1 (RIA Novosti) - A woman in the U.S. state of California faces charges Friday over counterfeiting money and identification cards after her 10-year-old son turned her in to local police, local media reported.
The boy gave authorities phony money that his mother, Jessie Reed, 30, of Bakersfield, allegedly created. The child also told police that she used a computer to make fake identification cards, The San Francisco Chronicle reported.
During a search of her house, officers seized computer disks, scanners and printers.
The woman, who faces several charges, including possessing equipment to commit forgery, was arrested July 4 and was released on $50,000 bail the same day.
