Supreme Court of Colorado

The People of the State of Colorado, Petitioner/cross-Respondent v. Daniela Molina, Respondent/cross-Petitioner

February 6, 20172017 Colo. LEXIS 87

Summary

The court held that identity-theft liability requires proof that the defendant knew the identifying information belonged to another person. It further held that sufficient circumstantial evidence supported Molina's knowledge and that employment and an apartment lease qualify as things of value under the identity-theft statute. The court therefore affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded; no separate opinions were filed.
