Now charged with identity theft

AN AIDE to a US Democratic Texan congressman has been arrested by the secret service after he posed as his ex-girlfriend online.

Jason Wayne Roller, 29, has been charged with fraud and identity theft, according to News 4 WOAI.

Roller apparently went online to impersonate his ex-girlfriend on a web site and posted a profile claiming she was bisexual and liked to drink the night away.

It isn't clear how, but apparently the ex found out about this and was mightily miffed. She told the spooks that she broke up with Roller last year and he has been harassing her, online.

Court documents show that Roller has been doing such stunts from his home and work computer.

Now it seems that Roller's job as a congressional staff member to Henry Cuellar has been terminated as soon as the congressman found out about it.

Before he was a lawmaker, Cuellar was a lawyer, and in a statement he said that although the law of the land was that a person was innocent until proven guilty, he would not tolerate anyone in his employ to be under a cloud of suspicion. ยต
