Then there is also the problem of idenity theft. I don't think ID theft is a factor in too many wrongful charges of murder, but it certainly can be a factor in other crimes.. I know where-of I speak:

4 years ago someone stole my purse which contained among other things, my passport, my driver's licence, my social security card, and an unfilled doctor's prescription. They went on quite the little crime spree as me and I am still having difficulty clearing up the wreckage after THEIR party - including a number of odd aliases and 20 counts of prescription drug fraud.
