U.S. defense contractor Walter Primrose and his wife, Gwynn Morrison, both now in their 60s, are charged with aggravated identity theft, conspiracy to commit an offense against the U.S. and a false statement in an application for a passport, according to court documents unsealed last week.
The couple assumed the names of Bobby Edward Fort and Julie Lyn Montague, two Texas babies who died when they were under a year old. Prosecutors allege that Primrose used Fort's identity to fraudulently enlist in the U.S. Coast Guard in 1994, eventually obtaining a secret security clearance and serving for more than two decades before landing a job as a defense contractor after his retirement in 2016.
