A family that is being investigated for running a $6 million mortgage fraud scheme is behind bars, with the exception of the mother who just posted bond.
John Pavao, the suspected ringleader and his daughter, Shastine Pavao remain in jail while the mother, who has maintained her innocence is free on bond. Debra Pavao declined to comment when a reporter asked her how it feels to be called a scam artist. The family is accused of tricking about 50 homeowners into signing their deeds over to them and then putting the property into a special trust so they could take out new mortgages and pocket the money.
Pavao, 50, reportedly had a smile on her face when walking out of Orange County jail, until she met up with the news reporter. A 90-year-old alleged victim said she hopes the family gets what they deserve.
