More Arrests in Alleged Cash Back Scheme

Published: Tuesday, June 24, 2008 5:20 PM PDT



I just heard from Darrell Foxworth, spokesman for the San Diego division of the FBI, that law enforcement has arrested two of the fugitive defendants from the alleged mortgage fraud ring announced Thursday.

Defendant Angel Armendariz turned himself in at the FBI offices on Aero Drive this morning. And FBI officers arrested defendant Rafael Santiago in Los Angeles this afternoon, Foxworth said.

Officials are still looking for Lucette Montaine, the last of the six individuals named in the federal complaint released last week.
