Tampa Bay House Flipper Sent to Federal Prison

A Tampa Bay House Flipper was Sent to Federal Prison this week according to the United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Florida and the St Pete Times. Judge James D. Whittemore called him "a good example of why we are in an economic crisis," and sentenced a Clearwater house flipper to 13 months in prison for lying on applications for loans.

"It's simple greed, and we're going to see a lot more of it in this court than we should in coming years," the Judge continued "The harm occasioned by mortgage fraud is not just economic, it is much broader than lenders simply losing money."

"You knew better," the Judge told him, "You did what millions of people have done, and look where we are today."

Florida Financial Fraud Defense Attorney on Uptick in Prosecutions

Florida Financial Fraud Defense Attorney, W.F. ''Casey'' Ebsary, Jr., expects an uptick in Prosecutions. According to the New York Times, Senators have introduced new legislation to increase enforcement and detection of white-collar crime in the wake of the $50 billion fraud allegedly perpetrated by Bernard L. Madoff. There is a proposal to add $110 million to the budgets of the Justice Department, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the F.B.I. to help crack down on Wall Street fraud. The new legislation is known as the Supplemental Anti-Fraud Enforcement (“SAFE”) Markets Act. The F.B.I. would get the bulk of the funds, $80 million, to hire 500 new agents in its white-collar crime division.
