Massachusetts Man Who Fraudulently Holds Himself Out As A Lawyer Charged With Larceny

Larceny by scheme is defined as a series of thefts set in motion by a single criminal intent such that all such takings constitute one single act of larceny. In other words, the district attorney can aggregate the sum of all the thefts so that the total amount rises to the threshhold that makes this crime a felony. So what exactly will happen to Marmol? Assuming Marmol hires a Criminal Defense Lawyer Who Handles Cases in Lawrence, Massachusetts and there are no additional victims the case might be continued without a finding. I would imagine that a condition of this disposition will require Marmol to pay full restitution to the victims. Larceny by Scheme is a Felony in Massachusetts.
