Mortgage fraud (continued from page 6) of the properties at the time the loan was approved. The retroactive appraisals established that appraisal reports provided by Lamicella did not accurately reflect the value at the time the loan was approved and were grossly inflated. Riveron and Cardoza would resubmit the loan application for the same borrower with false income information to meet Paragon’s loan eligibility criteria. The mortgage applications submitted to Paragon contained false financial information, fictitious W-2’s, and, in some instances, fabricated income tax returns. Cardoza and Riveron would personally pay Woolbert a set amount per loan to get the loan approved through Paragon in this manner. Over $3,000,000 of residential mortgage loans were processed in this manner and are currently in default. This is an ongoing investigation. Prosecutor Molinelli states that the defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
