Wisconsin Refiles 24-Count Case Against '90 Day Fiancé' Alum Leida Margaretha

Prosecutors say newly obtained financial and public records link unauthorized transfers to a company she controls.

Overview

  • The new filing alleges theft, wire fraud, forgery and felony bail jumping, with outlets noting slight differences in how the forgery counts are tallied from online records.
  • Prosecutors accuse Margaretha of transferring more than $14,000 from former employer Mix-Tek’s accounts between late 2023 and early 2024 to Proud American Logistics LLC.
  • Investigators cite insurer and payment-network data from Progressive and PrePass and USDOT listings that connect the transactions to Proud American Logistics, where she is registered agent.
  • Earlier charges tied to the same transactions were filed in May 2024 and dismissed in May 2025 after prosecutors said evidence was lacking, then refiled after subpoenas produced additional records.
  • An initial court appearance is set for February 18, 2026, and reports indicate she had not been arrested on the new counts at the time of publication.
