Ex-land executives jailed in Orange County fraud case
Two former Phoenix area land firm executives were jailed on 19 felony charges after posting bonds of 250000. J Kelly Farris and Donald Lightner, linked to Ned Warren Sr., are accused of defrauding investors of at least 157000 through two schemes including a phony National Rent-A-Boat firm and a Costa Mesa sporting goods venture. Authorities say they disappeared then resurfaced in Santa Ana, with investors paying 15000 each for four shares while a prototype living trailer project faltered.
