SHREVEPORT, La. - Two Shreveport women are in custody after being accused of defrauding veterans of more than a million dollars.

Police were conducting an investigation Tuesday in the 100 block of Captain H.M. Shreve Boulevard in a case they've been working on since September.

Multiple veterans were targeted and police said most were senior citizens.

Investigators said Destane Glass, 21, was arrested and booked with identity theft. Glass reportedly used the money to buy a home, expensive cars and other lavish items.

Investigators said 21-year-old Zarrajah Watkins used her job at Teleperformance to gain access to the veterans' USAA bank account information.

Watkins allegedly sold the information to Glass and others who used several tactics to defraud the account holders.

Watkins was arrested last week and charged with identity theft.

The ATF, Secret Service, state police and the city marshal's office also took part in the investigation.

Glass has been arrested a slew of times for "theft" in the last few years. Maybe now she'll do "real time" behind bars.

Saw nothing on Watkins having an arrest record. She's starting off with the FBI in on it - welcome to the big-time, Zarrajah.

Identity theft should be charged as kidnapping.

Day, Date and Time of her bail release should be published way ahead of time and distributed to the Veterans she scammed money from.

I foresee and unfortunate accident in her future.

One of the most low down things a criminal can do. I’m, at this point, just left shell shocked at what some people choose to do to other people.

Please rot in prison.
