A resident of Boston was sentenced to 40 months in prison in connection with his involvement in extensive online fraud operations aimed at individuals across the United States, including romance and advance fee scams on Monday. These schemes led to a collective loss of over $1.3 million for about 30 victims, according to federal prosecutors.
Kelechi Collins Umeh, 40, from Boston (but previously living in Quincy), was sentenced by U.S. Senior District Judge William G. Young to the prison term and two years of supervised release. He was also ordered to reimburse $878,652.
It's hard to believe it after the way the team played earlier this week, but the oddsmakers like the New England Patriots' chances this upcoming Sunday.
Most sportsbooks have the 1-3 Patriots as 1-point favorites over the New Orleans Saints (1-3), according to Vegas Insider. The game is scheduled to take place on Sunday, October 8 at Gillette Stadium (1 p.m. start time) and air on local CBS affiliate stations.
