A couple charged with stealing the identity of a pop star and an actress pleaded not guilty this morning in federal court. Shameika Drain Curry and Charles B. Curry Jr., both 28, are charged with identity theft, mail fraud and bank fraud.
The Currys are charged with defrauding several people, including Grammy Award-winning hip-hop performer Ashanti and actress Nia Long, to illegally purchase cars, obtain credit cards and write bogus checks.
