Overview
- Summer Worden admitted on Thursday to making a false statement after alleging Anne McClain accessed her bank account from the International Space Station.
- Prosecutors said records showed Worden opened the account in April 2018, both parties used it until January 2019, and McClain had been given login access years earlier.
- Worden’s plea covers false statements to the Federal Trade Commission and NASA’s Office of Inspector General during the couple’s divorce dispute.
- Under the agreement, federal prosecutors will drop 2022 wire‑fraud and unlawful‑transaction counts tied to a 2017 land deal that allegedly took more than $200,000 from eight people, including McClain, in exchange for restitution.
- She remains free on bond, faces up to five years in prison, and is scheduled for sentencing on Feb. 12.
