Three Southern Californian’s Indicted: The three were indicted by a federal grand jury in Los Angeles on charges that they counterfeited computer chips that enabled cellular telephone users to make free phone calls. The charges stem from two separate cases--one in Orange County and one in Los Angeles--stemming from the same investigation headed by the U.S. Secret Service. Kenneth Steven Bailey, 41, of Laguna Niguel, was charged with making and selling counterfeit devices in this area. In the other, Robert Dewayne Sutton, 36, of Saugus, and Dennis Mercer Allen, 33, of Los Angeles were indicted by the same grand jury for a similar scheme.
