Cincinnati man pleads guilty in home ownership scheme

Criminal Law

An Ohio man has pleaded guilty to five counts of tampering with records after authorities say he tried to get homes he didn't own listed in his name.

The charges against David Halsell came after Hamilton County Auditor employees noticed several of Halsell's companies filing large amounts of ownership transfer requests.

Prosecutors looked into the properties and say some of the buildings were in foreclosure and others belonged to dead people.
