Karen Hayes, charged as part of an ongoing mortgage fraud investigation has pleaded guilty to organized crime activity
Karen Hayes, charged as part of an ongoing mortgage fraud investigation has pleaded guilty to organized crime activity and has been sentenced to 18 years in prison, officials said Monday. The investigation was conducted by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, local Federal Bureau of Investigation officers and investigators for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Karen Hayes, 58, of Kemp, was the head saleswoman for a manufactured home business where documents required to guarantee Federal Housing Authority loans were falsified, investigators say. The scheme cost taxpayers $3 million because HUD guaranteed the fraudulent loans that defaulted. Kandace Marriott, 53, was sentenced earlier this year to 99 years in prison for her involvement in the same case.
