A former state prison inmate has admitted to laundering an estimated $1 million in funds illegally procured in a scheme that targeted police, federal agents and judges, the U.S. attorney in Atlanta announced late Monday.
Reginald Perkins, 35, of Suwanee, on Monday pleaded guilty to one count of money-laundering for his role in what federal authorities say was a wide-ranging fraud scheme that relied on thousands of contraband cellular telephones that inmates at Autry State Prison in Pelham were able to secure—often from prison guards and staff. Perkins was an Autry inmate from September 2012 until December 2014 and was on parole when he was indicted in January.
