41 people charged in mortgage fraud in NY

NEW YORK — Federal authorities have charged 41 people in a mortgage fraud involving tens of millions of dollars across New York state.

The U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan scheduled a news conference Thursday to reveal details of the case.

Authorities say that among those charged are attorneys, loan brokers, accountants and other gatekeepers in the mortgage process.

They’re charged in federal court documents that were not immediately made public.
