ID Theft Victim: Can I get into real estate investing?

Without going into all the details, a few years ago, I was the victim of ID Theft. I now have a lot of "black marks," and am trying to get things cleaned up.

I've been looking around, on BP, and other sites, and one thing a lot of lenders look at [pro PML firms, HMLs, etc.] is credit, to make sure that I "won't be an issue." The problem is, being an ID Theft Victim, I have a lot of "issues." I do have the police reports, although I don't know if that would help, and not sure I want to, or even should, share that info. It would be very difficult to prove "what's mine, and what isn't" to a lender.

So, what would be some options? I'm interested in buy & hold of small multifamily [small apartment buildings, multifamily].
