Pastor's Son Jailed In Mail Fraud Case In Pennsylvania
Wesley Will, 20, son of Rev Alfred J Hel Gietrich, superintendent of Bret Methodist church, was jailed in Barhon Pennsylvania on charges of mailing fraud. He posed as a wealthy suitor named Rick Gir to defraud men who believed they supported a farm valued at ten thousand dollars. Victims sent money and in some cases a diamond ring after letters from a supposed Helen. The scheme targeted men in multiple states and involved forged references. An investigation began in October and led to the arrest after a suspicious suitor notified authorities. Will be tried in Terre.
