If Melania Trump is still living in the White House, she probably hides from Donald in the library, since he NEVER goes in there.

A former theater agent has been sentenced to six months in jail after admitting that he bilked investors of hundreds of thousands of dollars to back a nonexistent Broadway play.

Roland Scahill, 42, confessed to a scheme that took place between October 2014 and August 2015, in which Mr. Scahill told associates that he had secured the rights to the life story of Kathleen Battle, the opera singer, and was going to produce a one-woman play called “The Kathleen Battle Project” with Lupita Nyong’o as its star.

Ms. Nyong’o had no knowledge of this, nor did the Shubert Organization, which Mr. Scahill said was offering up the Booth Theater to house the show. Mr. Scahill also said he had told investors that he had struck a deal with Netflix to stream a performance of the show.

In total, Mr. Scahill confessed to defrauding 10 investors of $205,000, according to court papers.
