On December 11th, 2023, 26-year-old Dynasia Bryant was caught using fraudulent card information at Utley Orthodontist on Germantown Bend CV. When officers arrived on the scene, they spoke with Kevin Utley, the Orthodontist who met with Bryant regarding dental work, and claimed that Bryant made a $950 down payment using a debit card, but the payment had been disputed. Utley then stated that he was contacted by a bank advising that the card used belonged to Summer Kelley, and she did not authorize the payment.
The bank then provided documentation showing that 12 fraudulent charges were made to Kelley’s card in numerous stores, totaling $2636.26. Documents also show a shipping address was matched to be Bryant Cottage Oaks residence. On January 29th, 2023, Utley identified Bryant as the one paying for the services. Officers spoke with Kelley on January 7th, 2024, and she stated she did not know Bryant and did not authorize the transactions. Bryant was taken into custody on May 6th, 2024, and was charged with theft, fraudulent use of a card, and identity theft.
