Sean Kingston, Mother Plead Not Guilty to Fraud Charges
Sean Kingston and his mother, Janice Turner, were seen hastily leaving a federal courthouse in Fort Lauderdale after pleading not guilty to multiple charges, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud. They are accused of orchestrating a nearly $1 million fraud scheme that involved falsely claiming to have made bank wire transfers for high-value items. Both face significant legal repercussions, with potential prison sentences of up to 20 years if convicted. Kingston, who was previously on probation for trafficking stolen property, and Turner, who has a past conviction for bank fraud, were indicted by a Miami federal grand jury. The pair requested a jury trial, and their case is under investigation by federal prosecutors, who allege they unjustly enriched themselves through deceptive practices. Their legal troubles began following a police raid at Kingston's Florida mansion in May.
