Back in May<\/a>, we wrote about Mark B. Chartrand when he was arrested and pleaded guilty to pretending to be a wounded soldier to get a free stay in an Airbnb room in St Louis, Missouri. In August, he was sentenced to three years probation, according to the St Louis Tribune<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He’s still facing bad check charges in Jefferson County and he’s still hanging out in St Louis while he waits for his day in court. So, he went back to his old ways, according to someone who has had contact with him. He’s telling stories about how he’s a Master Sergeant and a Ranger about to deploy on a secret operation in order to separate well-intentioned women from their cash using the name Mark Bryant. Here are some pictures he’s sending them;<\/p>\n

You can tell he’s legit because he has dogtags outside his shirt. And then there’s that totally legit beret and the oversized 5th SF Group flash. He has a Facebook page<\/a> he hasn’t used for years which includes this picture. He pretends to be Army, but this picture he stole from someone is an Air Force uniform;<\/p>\n

The boy just doesn’t learn. According to the Tribune, this isn’t the first time he was arrested for pretending to be something he wasn’t;<\/p>\n

In 2012, Chartrand was placed on probation for five years on a charge of impersonating a federal agent and ordered to repay $138,000. He borrowed money from a “paramour,” and pretended to be a “clandestine counter-terrorism operative” working overseas to delay repayment, his plea says. He violated that probation in 2013 and was sentenced to nine months behind bars.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m thinking that his parole officer would like to know that he’s still up to the same old antics, still trying to fool women into giving him money. Especially since he has another trial coming up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
