Two Men Sentenced in $2M Theft

Two men face serious federal charges after stealing over $2 million during a July 4th weekend in Glassboro, 2021. Ricky Rivas-Ortiz, 43, received a 21-month sentence and two years of supervised release. Ruben Cruz, 33, faces multiple counts including conspiracy to transport stolen property and money laundering. Prosecutors say they tried to hide their tracks by cashing money orders in small amounts at multiple banks — even the same branch on consecutive days. Authorities are sending a clear message: large-scale theft won’t be tolerated. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
