Christina Burden, 32, was sentenced to three years in federal prison and ordered to pay back $1.1 million.
OAKLAND — A 32-year-old woman was sentenced to three years in prison for requesting $4.6 million in fraudulent coronavirus protection loans, of which she received more than $1.1 million, prosecutors announced Thursday.
Christina Burden, of Oakland, pleaded guilty last year to bank fraud in the scheme. U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers gave Burden three more months than what prosecutors were asking and ordered her to pay back the $1.1 million. In a sentencing memo, prosecutors described Burden as a “serial liar” who submitted fake bank reports and payroll tax sheets behind her made-up claim to own a business that had 89 employees and pulled in $700,000 per year.
“She even lied on her resume to get the six-figure-salary job she had up until being charged in this case, telling Verily Life Sciences that she had an MBA from Stanford and a B.S. from Spelman College, despite the fact that she never attended either institution and does not have a college degree,” assistant U.S. Attorney Abraham Fine wrote in a sentencing memo.
She spent the money on private jet travel, luxury purchases from Neiman Marcus and other high-end stores, boat and car rentals to the tune of $16,000 and $150,000 in cars, among other expenses, prosecutors said.
