Last month, the Caddo district attorney's office offered 80 people charged with writing hot checks one last chance to make restitution before they started making arrests.
Today they got one of their main targets -- serving an arrest warrant on a woman accused of writing more than $12,000 in worthless checks.
Trena R. Hall, 31, of Shreveport, was arrested without incident this afternoon at a southwest Shreveport assisted-living facility where she works.
District attorney's spokesman Pat Culverhouse said Davis was charged with writing $2,467 worth of hot checks.
Prosecutors earlier had implicated Hall in two other cases charging her with writing more than $10,000 worth of bad checks. She had not made restitution on any of the checks, Culverhouse said, so authorities decided to put her in jail.
Hall's bond was set at $5,000.
The D.A.'s office has released a list of people who have warrants out for their arrests for issuing worthless checks and not making restitution. The list is available at the D.A.'s web site: www.caddoda.com. Hall is the third person from that list to be arrested.
