2 more former RDAG employees sentenced for roles in fraud
Two more former Reagor Dykes Auto Group employees were sentenced in Amarillo federal court Thursday for what U.S. District Judge Matthew J. Kacsmaryk said was their role in the largest floor plan fraud scheme in American history.
Elaina Marie Cabral, an office manager at the auto group’s Toyota location in Plainview, and Whitney Erin Maldonado, an office manager of Reagor Dykes Imports in Lubbock, were both given 27 month federal prison sentences with no fine after they pleaded guilty to counts of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
However, both Cabral and Maldonado are required to pay restitution.
This comes after Kacsmaryk sentenced six other former RDAG employees Tuesday in Amarillo, giving out sentences ranging from 24 months to 42 months in prison on counts of conspiracy to commit bank fraud or counts of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
All eight individuals sentenced over the past week, as well as Reagor Dykes’ CFO Shane Andrew Smith, who will be sentenced in federal court July 27, are being ordered to pay restitution totaling $40,254,297.72.
