Repo Attempt Leads to Title Forgery Arrest In Arkansas

JONESBORO, Ark. (KAIT) – Police arrested a man in Jonesboro after an affidavit said he forged a deceased man’s signature to obtain a new vehicle title.

Craighead County District Judge David Boling found probable cause Friday to charge Quindin Marquese Miller with second-degree forgery, a Class C felony.

On Jan. 8, 2026, about 2 p.m., the affidavit said an officer responded to the 200 block of Maple Street after a repossession company attempted to repossess a 2007 Lincoln Town Car.

According to the affidavit, Miller provided police with a title for the vehicle, but Larry’s Auto Sales later told officers and provided paperwork showing the title had been transferred to Miller through forged documents.

The affidavit said police acquired the documents from the Department of Motor Vehicles, which showed that Miller had signed a deceased man’s name on multiple documents.

A records search showed the man’s whose signature Miller allegedly forged died on Feb. 29, 2024; DMV documents showed that man’s signature on paperwork dated July 15, 2025—more than a year after his death. Miller’s signature and the deceased man’s signatures appeared to be in the same handwriting, the affidavit said.

The title was further altered to reflect a sale from the deceased man to Miller, bypassing Larry’s Auto Sales as if they had never possessed the vehicle. Miller also forged a bill of sale indicating he purchased it from the deceased man on July 1, 2025, for $300.

Miller presented the forged documents to the DMV on July 16, 2025, and obtained a new vehicle title issued in Miller’s name.

Boling ordered Miller held on a $25,000 cash or surety bond. Miller is scheduled to be arraigned Feb. 27, 2026.
