American singer Sean Kingston has been indicted for his involvement in a $1 million wire fraud scheme. Kingston, alongside his mother, Janice Turner, faced indictment on Friday in a Miami federal court.
The scheme allegedly entailed making payments through banks that never went through, resulting in over $1 million worth of property being fraudulently acquired. The duo faces one count of conspiracy to commit fraud and five counts of wire fraud.
The charges stem from an alleged attempt to defraud sellers of high-end specialty vehicles, jewelry, and other goods using fraudulent documents. The United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida stated that the defendants “unjustly enriched themselves by falsely representing that they had executed monetary payment transfers.”
