Ohio quartet seized in multi million dollar counterfeit scheme
Four Ohio men were arrested after authorities seized at least 12 million dollars in counterfeit hundred dollar bills. Ronald Stage of the Secret Service said the raid targeted a shop in Springfield Township and residences in Akron. Bail was set at 10 thousand dollars for James Jackson and Joel Marcinko, with French Beatty and James Dennewitz held in lieu of bonds. Investigators found printing gear and counterfeit money at the scene, noting the plates were of good quality but the product only fair to good and the notes had a light appearance.
