A federal grand jury in Phoenix has indicted a Peoria woman and 64 other people for alleged fraud in taking out student loans from Rio Salado College.
Prosecutors contend Trenda Lynne Halton, 37, recruited the codefendants to pose as Rio Salado students to get loans. The U.S. Attorney’s office for Arizona alleges Halton and her “straw students” received more than $530,000 in secured federal loans and financial aid. They are charged with mail and financial aid fraud and making false statements on financial aid documents. Halton was arrested Wednesday.
