PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – A local electrical repair shop owner pleaded guilty to fraud and money laundering charges.
According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, between January 2016 and August 2018, Milton Barr instructed Ninja Electronics employees to purchase items known to be stolen.
Although the business only buys and sells electronics, it also included personal care products, beauty products, and even over-the-counter medications.
Officials said Barr would resell the products online and get paid more than $500,000 on Amazon alone.
His sentencing is scheduled for May.
