David Willan, Craig Conner, Daniel A. Mohler, Sandra Langer, Mandie Pugh, Nicole Pappas-Ford, Richard Borodkin, Brianna Fullerton and Daniel Ringer, all of Evergreen, Ohio, Amanda Lower, Angela Soukup and Gene Luce III, all of Carnation, Ohio, appraisers Joseph Pietro, John Schwinkendorf, Susan Bigley and Robert Kokai, and Michelle Hyatt of First Security Title, were all reportedly charged with a mortgage fraud scheme that took Summit County and Ohio officials years to prove.
The 147-count indictment sets forth mortgage fraud schemes that involved several Evergreen Investments companies. Officials reportedly reviewed over 800,000 pages of loan documents in their investigation. Those affected by the fraud schemes are said to be at least 500.

Fraud is going to cause the whole financial system to crater. There is so much garbage in the securitized mortgage market that it is scary!
The feds better get serious about loan quality or 2010 is going to make 1929 look like a picnic in the park.

The Akron scammers, swindlers and defrauders deserve, if convicted, decades in the slammer (for each one).
Don’t at all understand the quote in the Akron paper that “each mortgage generated between 3,000 and 5,000 pages” requiring review. If true, why not COMPUTERIZE THE ENTIRE PROCESS???
