>> How Jocelyn Kirsch and boyfriend stole money


Jocelyn Kirsch, 23, and boyfriend Anderton, 25, made use of their friends and neighbors' identity, entering their apartments to steal mailbox keys.

Kirsch and Anderton made fake drivers' licenses for themselves using a machine they bought, after that selling laptops and iPods on eBay, items that actually were inexistent.

The couple wrapped more than $160,000 from friends and neighbors

Photos released by police in December, after the arrest of the two, are a proof that the lovers travelled in Paris and Hawaii.

The photos were called by a U.S. attorney "poster children" for identity fraud.

Kirsch wrote a four-page letter to the judge, in which she describes her recent stay in prison as "the first period of real calm in ... a very long time."

"One small thing led to a number of larger indiscretions and before I knew it we were doing more and more dangerous things; spending our money recklessly, drinking, lying, stealing," wrote Kirsch.

Kirsch is going to spend her next 5 years in prison for the crime and will have to pay back the money she stole from 50 people.
