Overview

  • Prosecutors say Daniel Boldi stole $6.2 million from 52 victims in a scheme that targeted real estate transactions.
  • He pleaded guilty last October to 13 counts of second-degree grand larceny and one count of first-degree scheming to defraud and surrendered his law license.
  • The court entered civil judgment orders exceeding $6.2 million on behalf of victims, yet no restitution has been made to date.
  • Investigators described tactics including false claims that wire transfers had not posted and fake wire documents that led sellers to keep paying mortgages on homes they no longer owned.
  • Sentencing was delayed twice as additional victims surfaced, and prosecutors say stolen funds went to personal expenses such as Venmo payments and property investments.
