Two Await Sentencing in Vehicle Fraud Scheme

Two people pleaded guilty in relation to a fraud scheme to obtain vehicles from car dealerships in Kentucky and West Virginia. Millard Patrick and Mindy Turner admitted that Turner passed a bad check at a car dealership in Louisville, Kentucky in last June so they could buy a Ford Explorer, which they turned around and traded in at a Charleston dealership for a more expensive Ford F-150. Patrick and Turner admitted to passing another bad check at a Hurricane dealership to obtain a Jeep Cherokee which they traded in at a Ripley dealership. Both will be sentenced this summer.
