Pro-Trump scam PAC operator, PPP fraudster sentenced to nearly 4 years in prison

A Las Vegas man behind both a pro-Trump scam PAC and a fraudulent Paycheck Protection Program loan scheme was sentenced to 46 months in prison on Monday and ordered to repay $1.4 million to his victims, including federal taxpayers.

James Kyle Bell, 45, stole government pandemic relief aid while also conning supporters of both then-President Donald Trump and eventual victor Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election, U.S. prosecutors in Washington said. Bell, prosecutors said, was the first scam PAC operator to be sentenced in federal court in Washington, as well as the first PPP loan fraud defendant.
