Dylan Simon
Dylan Simon, a former clerk at Hadeed Motors, has been sentenced to pay hefty fines after being convicted of defrauding the car dealership.
Justice Tunde Bakre handed down the sentence today, which includes two separate fines. Simon must pay $85,000 for electronic forgery and $15,000 for forgery.
The court ordered Simon to pay $50,000 by October 31, followed by monthly installments of $10,000. If Simon fails to meet these payments, he will face a prison sentence of 2 years and 10 months for the first count, and 10 months for the second.
The conviction, delivered in July 2024, relates to Simon’s input of a fraudulent check as payment for a vehicle, which he allegedly then sold to a government agency.
The fraudulent activity came to light during an internal audit conducted by Hadeed Motors following the nationwide Covid-19 lockdown in 2020.
Simon was initially facing eight charges but was acquitted on six after his trial. However, the prosecution has recently refiled these charges, intending to pursue a new trial.
The refiled charges include larceny, money laundering, electronic forgery, and falsification of accounts. These charges stem from the fraudulent sale of a Nissan Frontier pickup, which Simon allegedly stole from the company using falsified information.
Dr Williams will pull out enough teeth to cover that!
Lol hahahahaha. Or get his backdoor played with.
What? He wasn’t taught not to take people’s things; work for what you want! Some people are just too greedy and envy other people’s things. Taking what is not for you has serious consequences.
He was taught but he didn’t think it applied to him in his teefing rh.
How sad! Stupid, greedy boy. Now if you can come up with $50,000 by the end of this month, and then find $5000 every month until next August 2025, I have absolutely no sympathy for you.
