A woman who said she only participated in a multimillion-dollar mortgage fraud scheme out of fear has been sentenced to more than three years in prison.
Lisa Luczak told prosecutors that her husband was so abusive she feared what might happen if she didn't obey his commands. She did plead guilty to one count of wire fraud in connection with a $30 million mortgage fraud scheme involving at least 37 properties purchased by 33 straw buyers.
Luczak and her husband reportedly made $5.8 million from the scheme that also used false information and inflated appraisals.
