MONROE, La. (AP) -- A man was sentenced to more than four years in prison for bilking friends and family out of more than $800,000 by convincing them that his wife was a government agent who could arrange to have their medical problems diagnosed by satellite imaging.
Brent Eric Finley, 38, of Rayville, was sentenced in federal court in Monroe to serve 51 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release. His wife, Stacey Finley, was sentenced in August to spend 63 months in prison and both are ordered to jointly pay restitution in the amount of $873,786.94.
The Finleys pleaded guilty in August to wire fraud, according to court records.
U.S. Attorney Donald W. Washington said in a news release following Monday's sentencing of Brent Finley that the couple convinced numerous people that Stacey Finley was a CIA agent and with her contacts she could schedule a medical scan of the victims' bodies by satellite imaging that would detect any hidden medical problems.
The Finley's convinced their victims that, if any medical problems were found, secret agents would administer medicine to them as they slept in exchange for payment, according to a bill of information filed when the Finleys were charged in May.
"These audacious criminals should remind all of us that scam artists will go to great lengths to take our life's savings," Washington said.

P.S. Black?
Shouldn't it be the other way around? They need to send the gullible people to jail.

att is the suck. when they were SBC i wanted to change the dsl service at my house to my name. it had the old school dsl that came in over a separate line, so they said they had to upgrade to the latest type, over the standard phone line. no prob... when their tech left, i had only ONE functioning phone jack in the entire house. after two more visits from them, they said they couldn't figure out the wiring and left it at ONE functioning phone jack.
my n00b *** was able to figure out (in about 10 minutes) what to hook up where based on the stripes on the wires and the color of the jacketing on the cables, so now I have ALL phone jacks functioning.
