On Monday, Jan. 30, former UTEP women’s basketball star Jenzel Nash, her fiancée Terrance Yelder and five others were taken into custody by federal agents.
A federal grand jury recently indicted former Nash, Yelder and the five on charges of conspiracy to commit bank fraud and several counts of false statements on loan or credit applications.
The indictments state that the defendants conspired from July 31, 2013 to March 22, 2016 to defraud financial institutions across the country out of $237,000, without specifying who on the indictment did what action or received how much money.
According to Nash, this is what made her want to speak out the most.
