TOMS RIVER, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — A New Jersey man has admitted to conning people out of more than $116,000 for New York Giants tickets he did not possess.
John Gorman, of Matawan, pleaded guilty to theft by deception.
The 49-year-old season ticket holder ripped off 19 people from 2008 through 2010 by claiming he had 28 seats for sale, prosecutors said. The victims paid Gorman and never received their seats.
Under terms of a plea agreement, prosecutors will recommend Gorman face up to five years in prison and be required to make full restitution.
