A New Palestine man has been sentenced to over four years in prison after he stole $1.2 million in an investment scheme. Instead of investing his client's money, he wired or transferred it to his own accounts for personal expenses.

Bruce Ford, 50, pleaded guilty to five counts of wire fraud and two counts of money laundering, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office Southern District of Indiana.From January 2013 through December 2018, Ford stole $1.2 million from at least 10 victims through a fraudulent investment and Ponzi scheme.

To induce his clients to invest with his company, Ford falsely made them believe he was a financial advisor and promised them through misleading claims that he could provide higher returns on their investments, officials say.
