North Carolina residents Sherman Leon Simmons, 43, and Mary Chambers Minor, 53, were charged with obtaining property by false pretense and residential mortgage fraud. Simmons, an independent mortgage broker assisted homeowner Minor in taking out a $62,000 loan against Minor's home. Instead of paying off debts Minor owed, they pocketed the money.
