When Axton Betz-Hamilton discovered the identity theft that had blighted her childhood was still causing her trouble as an adult, she became an expert in the field of childhood identity theft, even winning awards with her parents standing proudly beside her, and earned a PhD in the subject. When she found out who was behind her family's money and credit troubles though, she was shocked that it wasn't a random stranger; instead it was someone she had trusted.
