Woman Faces Charges for Allegedly Selling Imaginary Land and House  

A woman is tonight facing jailtime after allegedly selling a parcel of nonexistent land. The alleged perpetrator is Doris Grant, a name that came up back in April 2021, in a similar investigation. At the time, Grant was accused of receiving thousands of dollars from three individuals in exchange for lands she never had in her position to begin with. Police detained Grant last week after a woman filed a police report against her. The woman told investigators that she made fourteen monetary transactions to Grant who agreed to sell her a parcel of land and a house. But Grant has allegedly been unable to produce the land and house that the woman has paid for. Police told us more.

“About a month ago a complainant reported that she met a female identified as Doris Grant which she had several monetary transactions over a property and a house. An investigation was carried out and since then Doris Grant has been charged with fourteen counts of theft and fourteen counts of obtaining property by deception.”
