A Texas woman received four years in prison for scamming a Hancock County man out of over one million dollars.
Lorraine Lew pleaded guilty to corrupt business influence and two counts of counterfeiting. The Fort Worth woman began a relationship with a New Palestine man through social media. She convinced the man to send her about $1.2 million over a year-and-a-half. She claimed the money was for medical expenses.
Prosecutors said the money was used at casinos in Oklahoma. She visited one casino over 150 times in a six month period.
Lew was awarded one year jail credit.
