A social media influencer has pleaded guilty to fraudulently obtaining more than $1m in COVID-19 pandemic-related loans from the US government used to fund a lavish lifestyle which she flaunted on Instagram.
The 33-year-old also agreed to forfeit $1.3m as part of a plea deal with prosecutors and serve six years in prison, 16 months of which could overlap with a five-year sentence she was handed in October in a separate Florida bank fraud case. She is said to have spent the money on travel and luxury items including a Rolex, a Louis Vuitton bag and Dior shoes, as well as posting photos on Instagram of herself at opulent hotels in California where she used a bank account in the name of one of her victims.

Ill-gotten gains shouldn't be part of a plea and should be forfeit anyway, much less should those with money be able to reduce sentence as those without couldn't. Pah, I'm just a bit grumpy this am

She should go work for the UK government!

SNAKE!
