So-Called 'Sovereign Citizen' Gets 17+ Years For Screwing Over 17 Churches In Bogus Debt Reduction Foreclosure Rescue Scam
- A Memphis man has been sentenced to 17 1/2 years in federal prison after his conviction earlier this year of running a bogus debt-reduction company that defrauded regional churches of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
- Charles A. McKuhn Jr. traveled to several states in 2009 and met with pastors and church officials, falsely represented himself as a banker and persuaded them to pay him large sums of money for debt reduction and lines of credit for building funds, court documents show.
- He also convinced churches that owed debts to banks and other lending institutions not to pay those institutions, but to pay his companies called Intersec Capital Trust and Taurian Worldwide Inc.
