Marietta High students accused of counterfeiting

By
MARIETTA - An attempt to use a counterfeit $10 bill to buy a biscuit in the Marietta High School cafeteria led to four students being accused of printing money on a home computer. <br> <br> Bill Creel - assistant special agent in charge of the Secret Service in Atlanta - said one of the teen-agers printed at least $300 in $10 and $20 bills and offered it to the others. <br> <br> The scheme was discovered when one of them tried to pass the bill in the cafeteria March 28th. <br> <br> Marietta Police Officer Tanya Twadell said Wednesday that the school was the only place the teen-agers attempted to pass the money. <br> <br> Twadell said Wesley Staton and Justin Dobson - both 17 years old - were both charged with first-degree forgery. She said two juveniles also were charged with forgery, but their names were not released because of their ages.
