Brooklyn man gets prison in upstate quadriplegic scam
SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — Prosecutors in upstate New York say a Brooklyn man who masterminded a scheme to plunder a quadriplegic’s trust fund has been sent to prison.
Schenectady County District Attorney Robert M. Carney says Jayquan Drumgold was sentenced on Thursday to 12½ to 25 years behind bars.
Drumgold was found guilty of conspiring to steal about $50,000 from the Glenville man’s trust fund between December 2016 and January 2017.
