California Woman Sentenced for Real Estate Fraud

Tuesday, February 19 2008 03:33

Goldie Vicencio Santiago, 28, Redlands, California was sentenced to state prison resulting from felony charges connected to real estate fraud. Santiago appeared in San Bernardino County, Central District, Superior Court Friday, February 8, 2008, and was sentenced, as part of a plea agreement, to sixteen months in state prison for filing a false deed and forgery. The issue of $225,000 in restitution has been reserved for an upcoming hearing.

In May and June 2006, Santiago forged the victim's name on Quitclaim deeds. She then took out loans against at least two separate parcels of property in the County of San Bernardino, California for approximately $752,000, without the victim's knowledge. The residential properties were located in the cities of Hesperia and Colton.

On August 11, 2006, Investigators from the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Real Estate Fraud Unit arrested Santiago at her business located in San Bernardino.

    I dont think they should push white collar criminal in prisons. Instead they should make them work and take most of there earnings to payback victims and other charities..why waste more money on them by putting them in jails..these are not violent criminals so putting them in jails is waste of taxpayer money instead make them work there ass off and take all there earnings

    My brother, Allen Dickey, was dating or supposedly be married to Goldie Santiago. I met her once last year. He tried to get me to let her finance the house I'm trying to buy here in Memphis from her real estate office. I knew something wasn't right. I'm presently renting to own his home here in Memphis, TN.

    There is a way that SEEMS right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.

    -Jesus (Proverbs 16:25)

    Choose what IS right over what SEEMS right, and save yourself from serious consequences such as this.

    In mortgage, money is the business. Big money is at stake. So, there is no wonder why fraud is always there.
