Rockland Victim: Scam Artist Sent to Prison Probably Won’t Learn Lesson

November 23, 2021  •  By helpdesk1

November 23, 2021 by

A Rockland victim of a former Pomona man who claimed to be a financial advisor, and who was recently sentenced to more than five years in federal prison for ripping off several Westchester residents, says Gregg Brie’s past state crimes should have been allowed as evidence in his most recent federal case. Stony Point’s Steve Possell, former co-host of The Morning Show here on WRCR, isn’t convinced he’ll learn his lesson after spending time behind bars again…

Rockland D.A. Tom Walsh urges seniors to be alert for scammers, but acknowledges, it can happen to anyone…

The 54 year-old Brie pleaded guilty and was sentenced last week to more than five years in prison for ripping off several Westchester residents. In 2008, he was sentenced to three to nine years in state prison for stealing $2.13 million from 26 Rockland residents.

No paper. No paywall. Just the facts.
