The Licking County Grand Jury indicted Lemmon Perkins on multiple counts of theft, money laundering, and engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity. This indictment is part of a continuing crackdown on mortgage fraud by General Dann’s Ohio Organized Crime Investigations Commission in cooperation with county prosecutors’ offices and local, state, and federal law enforcement authorities.

This case was investigated by the Central Ohio Mortgage Fraud Task Force, which is led by the Columbus Division of Police; Economic Crime Unit. The task force worked with the Heath Police Department, Granville Police Department, and Licking County Prosecutor’s Office on this case. Other task force members include detectives from the Upper Arlington Police Department, investigators from the Ohio Attorney General’s Office, the Franklin County Prosecutor’s Office, the Delaware County Prosecutor’s Office, the Ohio Department of Commerce, the Ohio Department of Insurance, and agents from OIG for Housing and Urban Development, US Postal, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
