(SALEM, IL) — Two of three people arrested last week for their alleged participation in a fake check printing and cashing scheme have been formally charged in Marion County Court. Bail has been set at $7,500 for 21-year-old Sierra Shaw, who was formally charged with Class 4 felony bad check, while 30-year-old LeRoy Evilsizer was charged with two Class 4 felony counts of bad check. Evilsizer’s bail was set at $10,000 and his is prohibited from having contact with Shaw. They are both scheduled for January 26 preliminary hearings with their court appointed attorneys. Law enforcement believes up to 15 people are involved in the scheme, some who were used to cash checks may not have been aware they were fake.  Some of those involved are cooperating with the investigation to avoid criminal charges. The fake checks reportedly have a real bank routing number, which has led many area businesses to believe the checks are genuine and cashing them. After several weeks, however, the checks are found to be fraudulent and the business that cashed it is out that money. Law enforcement discourages businesses from offering check cashing services for these reasons.
