When reporting Donovan to the local police ad FBI, be sure to get a copy of the police report or receipt of the police report.  Police are often busy, and they need our help to distinguish his federal offenses from mere civil matters. Make sure that the police are aware that the criminal is a convicted felon; currently running a full-time criminal enterprise including hundreds of counts of identity theft, bouncing checks, creating and using fake checks and other fraudulent financial instruments, felony fraud with hundreds of victims and millions of dollars in damages; conspiracy with partner Melissa Ramsey; interstate crime in California; Michigan and Maine; has committed millions of dollars of fraud, including real estate fraud in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Monterrey, Salinas and San Francisco; kidnapped at least one mother of several children; victimized at least three real estate agents, brokers, real estate companies, home buyers, home sellers, banks and hotels. Due to the serious felony nature of the crimes, it is imperative to give the criminal evidence to law enforcement (along with all names that he is using) so that they may arrest and convict Donovan. Also give the police the link to the L.A. Loft Blog crime reports and evidence:
