Woman sentenced for role in student loan fraud ring Sacramento Business Journal: "24-year-old Sacramento woman has been sentenced to two years in prison and ordered to pay $119,000 in restitution for her role in a federal student loan fraud ring in the Sacramento area.
Jewel Minor admitted in her plea agreement that in June 2008 she was recruited to be a so-called “straw student” in order to get student loans but never attend school.
She was recruited by Teaona Williams, 24, and then 23-year-old Nakesha Sharrieff, — also known as Takiyah Raheem and Aysia Hanifah Kahan — gave Minor a “cut” of the proceeds from the alleged ring.
Sharrieff and Williams also have been charged for their role with the alleged ring.
Jarmal Duplessis, 22, has pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit student loan fraud and was sentenced to nine months in prison in November. He also must pay $23,300 in restitution. And Thomas Keys, 23, pleaded guilty in October to one count of conspiracy to commit student loan fraud and will be sentenced Jan. 10."
