Exactly why these BABIES shouldn’t be having babies. SMH!! One of the “fathers” from last season’s “16 & Pregnant” is currently sitting in a Michigan jail cell right now, after his mother alerted authorities he forged her signature on a $30 check. I’m definitely inclined to say it’s deeper between him and his mother than just this check (since $30 isn’t much but still, stealing is wrong regardless) and this was probably the last straw in a long chain of events. Having a child when he’s barely an adult himself was more than likely one of them!! Hit the jump for details.
TMZ has learned … 19-year-old Joshua Drummonds was arrested Monday in Monroe County, MI after his mother told police he stole 5 checks out of her checkbook over the past few months and wrote them out to himself.
According to the criminal complaint, obtained by TMZ, Josh wasn’t looking for a HUGE payday … because he only took a total of $270 … with each check ranging from $30 to $100.
Law enforcement tells us Drummonds is now facing 7 felony charges — 1 count of larceny for stealing the checks, 5 counts of forgery and 1 count of violating his probation.
Josh is facing up to 4 years behind bars for the larceny and 14 years for EACH COUNT of forgery.
Josh’s bail has been set at $20,000. They probably won’t take a check.
