Brockport woman to be sentenced for multitude of fraud charges
Patricia Hutchins, 53, is accused of various crimes of Unemployment Insurance fraud, Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan fraud, credit card, and elder fraud. She was previously arrested on prior charges including mail fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering.
A search warrant was executed by the U.S. Postal Inspectors, where documents, cash, and electronic devices used in or obtained from schemes were seized.
Hutchins pled guilty in May 2024 to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and was originally scheduled to be sentenced on October 16, 2024.
Spencerport man faces prison for role in fraud scheme
Hutchins is ordered to pay restitution to two victims— $20,052 to a financial institution for a fraudulent PPP loan, and $25,100 to an elderly person.
Her October sentencing was delayed due to claims that she did not have money for restitution. She cited the invested proceeds from selling her home had gone into a retirement account.
Upon the move to a December sentencing, she again said she did not have the money. Hutchins claimed to have given it all to someone she believed to be country singer Kenny Chesney, to invest. However, Hutchins previously claimed to have been scammed by this same individual. She eventually pled guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud alongside the individual she assumed to be Kenny Chesney.
Hutchins is scheduled for sentencing on April 15, 2025.
