Sean Kingston, Mother Guilty in $1M Fraud Case

Sean Kingston and his mother, Janice Turner, were found guilty of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and multiple counts of wire fraud, defrauding victims out of over $1 million worth of luxury goods. The scheme involved sending fake bank wire receipts for high-end items like cars and jewelry, which they never paid for. Kingston, under house arrest, and Turner, held in custody, are set for sentencing on July 11, each facing up to 20 years in prison per count. Sean Kingston was emotional during the trial, reportedly pleading for his mother's protection. The fraud case has overshadowed Kingston's recent Grammy win as a songwriter on Chris Brown's album. The duo's sentencing follows a swift trial, with a jury reaching a verdict in just over three hours.
