A Riverside County, Calif., grand jury indicted James Riley and Ryan Robinson, the former an insurance broker and the latter an ex-financial officer for the tribe, for allegedly defrauding the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians out of millions of dollars, according to an article that ran in the San Francisco Chronicle yesterday.
Riley, the article said, overcharged the tribe by $4 million for insurance premiums from 2006 to 2007; and Robinson was allegedly paid more than $100,000 “to look the other way.”
The men are scheduled to be arraigned on Feb. 18.
