Date of Incident: 1 July 2016
Location: 9000 block of Wallertown Road, Mardela Springs, MD
Suspect: Nicole Lynn Pleasanton, 31, Mardela Springs, MD
Narrative: On 1 July 2016 at 8:58 AM a deputy responded to investigate a report of a subject acting disorderly in the area of 9000 block of Wallertown Road in Mardela Springs, MD. Upon arrival, the deputy was shown which residence the subject entered and the deputy approached that residence to meet with the subject. During the encounter, this subject who would ultimately be identified as Nicole Pleasanton, gave the deputy two different identities. The deputy who doubted the veracity of the identities provided, resorted to reviewing photographs that were linked with the provided identities which showed that Pleasanton was clearly attempting to obfuscate the investigating deputy.
Upon finally determining the true identity of Pleasanton the deputy learned the reason she lied about her identity, there was an outstanding warrant that was issued after she failed to show for a Driving Suspended case.
The deputy placed Pleasanton under arrest for providing the false identity and the outstanding warrant. Following an initial appearance, the District Court Commissioner detained Pleasanton on a total bond of $6,000.00.
