Two women who pleaded guilty to taking part in a nationwide racketeering scam targeting the elderly, which took more than $300,000 from at least 10 San Diego County residents, were sentenced Thursday in San Diego federal court.

Gifford received a prison sentence of nearly five years, while Glinton received a time served sentence. Other co-defendants have received prison sentences ranging from two to nine years. Prosecutors say the defendants conducted cash pickups from victims and also recruited and supervised “mules” to make similar collections. The money was then laundered either by transferring the funds or converting the money into cryptocurrency, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
