Love During Lockup Season 3 introduces viewers to convicted felon Keith “Lil Mike” Collier and his wife, LaTisha Collier. LaTisha owns her own accounting and tax preparation business, and many viewers may wonder why an accountant would be using the Federal Bureau of Prisons as a match-making service.
As it turns out, LaTisha is no stranger to being behind bars herself! The 36-year-old momtrepreneur has been arrested numerous times over the years, including multiple convictions.
Unfortunately for LaTisha’s Boss Tax and Accounting Services, many of her charges and convictions are for things you wouldn’t want your accountant or tax preparer to be guilty of, including felony fraudulent practice and felony theft.
Starcasm has compiled a list of some of the charges filed against LaTisha Collier, as well as her convictions. Most of the entries include exclusive information from the court documents.
The list is arranged chronologically, starting with LaTisha’s most recent charges from November of last year. The dates and the original charges are in blue.
The list grew quite long quite quickly, so most of LaTisha’s probation violations and resulting sentences are not included. Also not included are the numerous civil cases involving LaTisha — including her business’s recent eviction. (Stay tuned for more info!)
Love During Lockup LaTisha Collier arrest history
NOVEMBER 27, 2022 – LaTisha Collier charged with interference with official acts and false report to a public entity.
According to the arresting officer’s affidavit, LaTisha allegedly called 911 to report the location of a suspect involved in a foot pursuit. She stated the suspect was hiding out in her back yard, and she provided the dispatcher with her address.
Officers arrived on the scene and located LaTisha. She denied making the 911 call, despite being in possession of the phone that dialed 911. Her home address was different than the one she provided to police.
Making matters worse for LaTisha, she refused to provide information about her identity to the officers on the scene.
LaTisha was found guilty of a interference with official acts (simple misdemeanor) and the false report charge was dismissed. She was fined $250.

On the above date and time, Davenport Police Officers responded to a large fight at 5220 Grand Ave (Deja Vu).
The charge stems from the investigation which ensued.
The defendant was observed by Officers in a physical altercation with multiple other individuals in the parking lot of the business. The defendant was also identified by witnesses as being involved in the fight.
When the defendant had been placed under arrest by Officers she refused to give her name. The defendant was advised she needed to identify herself and she still refused to do so. The defendant was later identified by jails staff.
