Couple Receives Suspended Terms in Worm Scam Case

James A. Philbrick and wife Phyllis were sentenced to suspended six months in federal court for mail fraud tied to a North Monmouth worm growing venture named Sherwood and Associates. They were placed on two years probation after pleading guilty. The firm claimed Maine bred worms for 18 dollars to be sold back for profit up to 5,000 yearly, but prosecutors said worms were actually bought from North Carolina and repacked. Defense said the couple acted in innocence after purchasing the business from Mrs Philbrick’s brother and credited a Mr Burke with the original idea.
