PORTLAND, Ore. — Oregon authorities say the woman dubbed the "Military Mistress" was stopped by sheriff's deputies in Alabama who seized the stolen car she and her current husband were living in, but then released the pair because they were not suspected of any local crimes.

The Marion County Sheriff's Office says 39-year-old Bobbi Ann Finley and her new husband are wanted for writing bad checks in Oregon, Colorado and Oklahoma.

The sheriff's office said it was notified Tuesday that the couple had been stopped by the Mobile County Sheriff's Office in Alabama.

Finley got her nickname in 2010, when national news outlets spotlighted allegations she went from one military base to the next, marrying service members to gain access to their bank accounts. In all, she married 14 U.S. service members.
