Detroit: 47-year-old Keith Lamont Johnson, a barber with no criminal record, has filed a lawsuit to stop police arresting him for the misdeeds of 47-year-old Keith Lamont Johnson the convicted forger who is serving time in a state prison.
Despite having letters from the Detroit PD stating that he was not to be confused with a criminal with an identical name and date of birth Johnson has ended up behind bars for up to several days on a number of occasions.
In addition he has missed out on several jobs because criminal record checks come back showing a felony record. "It's rough. It's been this way all my life. I keep talking and keep talking and no one listens and I end up in jail," said Johnson.
