Judge Pleads Guilty in Immigrant Scandal | Providence News

Former Central Falls Judge Joseph Molina Flynn, an immigrant himself, has agreed to plead guilty to wire fraud and tax evasion charges after allegedly scamming immigrant clients by charging for services he never delivered. The deal, still pending judicial approval, could have carried up to 25 years in prison but now promises a lighter sentence. Flynn, who previously entered a not guilty plea, plans to change it to guilty. He’s been released on a $10,000 bond, surrendered his passport, and must maintain full-time employment while traveling only within Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. Court restrictions include no weapons in his home and mandatory reporting of any contact with law enforcement. His attorney emphasized his commitment to recovery and making his former clients whole, as he takes responsibility for his actions.
