GREENBELT, Md. (AP) â A Maryland man pleaded guilty Tuesday to conspiring to launder more than $6.2 million from a romance scheme to fraudulently solicit money from more than 200 victims targeted through social media and dating websites.
Lesley Annor, 23, of Gaithersburg faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison. U.S. District Judge George Hazel is scheduled to sentence him on Oct. 29.
Annor has been jailed since he and his brother, David Annor, were arrested in November 2020 on money laundering charges. David Annor pleaded not guilty to a conspiracy charge in January.
Their victims ages ranged from 38 to 83, lived in the U.S. and overseas and often were elderly or isolated, prosecutors said.
