Annotate this CaseDefendant Cora Cadia Ford owned and managed a tax preparation business. Through that business, she operated a complex fraud scheme over a period of many years, acquiring personal information under false pretenses, often from victims who were homeless or mentally or physically disabled, and then using that information to file false tax returns and pocket the resulting refunds. She appealed her conviction and sentence on ten counts each of mail fraud, making a false claim, and aggravated identity theft. After careful consideration of all of defendant's alleged errors at the trial court level, the Tenth Circuit affirmed her conviction and sentence.
