Sean Kingston Face Charges Over $1Million Fraud

American singer Sean Kingston has been extradited to Florida, where he and his mother face charges of more than a million dollars in fraud.

According to documents, Kingston, 34, was taken into Broward County Jail on Sunday. He was arrested on May 23rd at Fort Irwin, an Army training camp in California's Mojave Desert, where he performed.

Last Monday, the singer had surrendered his right to contest extradition in a California court and agreed to be turned over to Florida police.

Kingston's mother, 61-year-old Janice Turner, was arrested on the same day as her son, when a SWAT squad raided his rented property in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Kingston and Turner have been charged with conducting an organized scheme to defraud, grand theft, identity theft, and related crimes, according to arrest warrants released by the Broward County Sheriff’s Office.

The warrants alleged they stole money, jewelry, a Cadillac Escalade, and furniture.

The warrants in the case say that from October to March they stole almost $500,000 in jewelry, more than $200,000 from Bank of America, $160,000 from the Cadillac dealer, more than $100,000 from First Republic Bank, and $86,000 from the maker of customized beds. Specifics were not given.

Kingston, whose legal name is Kisean Anderson, faced a judge Monday who set his bond at $100,000, or $10,000 on each of the 10 charges he faces.

He was also ordered to surrender his passport, won't be allowed to possess firearms, and can't have contact with his mother.

Robert Rosenblatt, an attorney for Kingston and his mother, previously said they looked forward to addressing the charges in a Florida court and “are confident of a successful resolution.”
