In an attempt to gain pity and leniency from the court, a Paterson woman allegedly provided Bergen County Probation officials with fake medical documents hoping for a lighter sentence in a criminal case she was facing.
Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli said 39-year-old Tonya Clayton, of the 300 block of 29th Street in Paterson, New Jersey, was charged with one count of impersonation/false identity in the 3rd degree, two counts of forgery and one count of falsifying records, both 4th degree crimes.
Clayton was arrested and arraigned August 12 following an investigation by members of the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office Trial Section, Detective Kelly Krenn, Chief Steven Cucciniello and the Bergen County Probation Department. Judge Edward Jerejian set Clayton's bail at $35,000.00 with no ten percent option. She was remanded to the Bergen County Jail until she could post bail.
