The Money Scandal
The defendants are accused of lying about the genuine nature of their business, the number of workers, and the sum of income on their papers. Reportedly, they misrepresented the material information on their applications. The defendants were then accepted for a loan by the SBA and other financial institutions. After getting their loans approved, the defendants did not use the funds they intended for, such as paying employee salaries, covering periodic liabilities or bill payments, or continuing employee health care benefits. Rather, they paid Hill and Moran, transferred the money to their accounts, and spent all that money on personal goods. As per the authorities, St John, who played the main Red Power Ranger on the series, and his co-defendants funded the scheme’s ringleaders and spent money on personal goods.
