Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

Slander

I belong to several group websites that are free to anyone to buy sell and trade items. There is a convicted Fellon in my area that is using these groups to stalk and steal from people, she keeps changing her name and email to avoid getting caught. The police are involved, but I want to know how I can let the group members be aware of this without being liable for slander myself. She was released from prison early, due to space. She was convicted of Animal cruelty and posession of 5 stolen dogs, she has been stealing animals and breeding, or reselling them. she had let some of them die. I would like some help stopping this sick women, would it be considered slander if I just sent or posted actual newspaper articles and criminal profiles of her that are already posted on the internet and available for all to see. Thanks for you help.
