Akron-Area Mortgage Fraud Indictments Linked To Strip Joint, Say Prosecutors

In Summit County, Ohio, the Akron Beacon Journal reports:

• Summit County prosecutors, who on Thursday announced a 147-count indictment in an alleged mortgage fraud and money laundering scheme, say they have linked the multimillion-dollar operation to the purchase of an Akron strip club. Stripped, a nightclub on Brittain Road south of Tallmadge Avenue, was run by Brianna Fullerton, the girlfriend of a key figure in the investigation — Evergreen Investment and Evergreen Homes President David B. Willan. Fullerton and Willan were among the 17 indicted Thursday and are tied by public records to Stripped and companies that purchased the club in May 2006.
