CHILTON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Danika Viasana was sentenced to four more years in prison for stealing mail and personal information for fraud.
Viasana, 33, was previously sentenced in Outagamie County to two years, four months in prison on similar charges.
In Calumet County, she was convicted of eight counts, including mail fraud and misappropriating identification information to obtain money. She was also placed on probation for five years by Judge Carey Reed at Tuesday’s hearing, court records show.
Viasana was already facing the charges in Outagamie, and Calumet counties when investigators issued a warning in March, 2022 that mail was being stolen from mailboxes, and warned the information could be used in identity theft and fraud cases. A few days later, two people were arrested in a traffic stop, and police found about 500 pieces of mail from more than 200 homes and businesses. Deputies then searched a hotel room in Kimberly where Viasana and a man were living, and found more stolen mail.
