Audrey Strauss, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced today that HERODE CHANCY, who at the time of the offense was employed as a manager at a Manhattan branch of a national bank (“Bank-1”), was sentenced today to 30 months in prison for his role in a commercial loan fraud scheme for loans totaling over $1 million.  CHANCY’s sentence was imposed by United States District Judge Lewis J. Liman.

U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss said: “Bank employee Herode Chancy used fake businesses, doctored bank statements, and stolen identities in an effort to obtain over $1 million in commercial loans.  Now Chancy has rightly been sentenced to prison for his crime.  Prosecutions like this one should serve as notice to individuals in positions of trust at financial institutions that engaging in corrupt criminal conduct will lead to prosecution and prison.”
