Haiti Diaspora - Lucie Tondreau sentenced to 65 months in prison for Mortgate Fraud
Lucie Tondreau, a community activist who made political history in North Miami and was a symbol of hope for many in her community, was sentenced to 65 months in prison on Tuesday by a federal judge for her role in an $11 million mortgage fraud scam.
A Miami federal jury found her guilty of conspiracy and wire-fraud charges after a two-week trial featuring emotional testimony from individuals who acted as "straw buyers" and said they trusted Tondreau. She faced a sentence of up to 30 years in prison and has remained in custody since her conviction last December.
