7:31Now PlayingTwo conservative activists plead guilty to a multi-state 2020 election robocall scheme.
Tuesday, in a Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court, Jacob Warhol of Los Angles and Jack Burkman Of Virginia pleaded guilty to one count of telecommunications fraud. The men made 67,000 illegal robocalls in midwestern states with election misinformation. The fraudulent calls told recipients their personal information would be sent to law enforcement debt collectors and be forced to get vaccinations if they voted by mail.
The campaign led the Federal Communications Commission to seek a record-breaking 5 million dollar fine against Warhol and Burman. New York and Michigan are currently pursuing separate charges against the two for Robocalls made to those states.
