Three Coloradans indicted in alleged mortgage-fraud scheme
Three Coloradans have been indicted in what state Attorney General John Suthers called an elaborate mortgage-fraud scheme, Suthers’ office announced Tuesday.
Named in the 23-count state grand jury indictment, handed down last Thursday, are Marcus Williams, 42; Kimberly Anderson, 39; and Scott Peters, 46. The case will be tried in Denver District Court, Suthers office said.
The indictment alleges that between April 2006 and September 2008, the trio used a shell company called Blackhawk Property Management LLC, which Williams controlled, to cheat home sellers and lenders.
The three conspired to falsify loan applications to deceive lenders and manipulated real-estate closing documents to skim money from transactions, the indictment alleges.
The indictment alleges that Anderson did business as Classic Title Agency.
The indictment does not indicate how much total money was involved in the alleged scheme.
Williams is charged with violating the Colorado Organized Crime Control Act as well as multiple counts of theft, forgery, tax evasion and offering a false document for recording.
Peters is charged with theft by receiving, tax evasion and forgery; Anderson is charged with conspiracy to commit theft and computer crime.
