more than $1 million Paycheck
Protection Program fraud
through their trucking
company, CSA Business
Solutions
LLC.
On May 18, 2022
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Analisa Torres held a
conference. Inner City Press
covered it.
The

On May 18 after a
discussion of documents seized
from Ray’s home, Judge Torres
set an “aspirational” trial
date of February 13, 2023, and
a next status conference for

On May 19,
the US filed a request for an
order authorizing the

On March 28, 2023
Ray pled guilty today to four
counts of wire fraud,
including one count of wire
fraud while released under
conditions of bail, and one
count of aggravated identity
theft in connection with
various fraud schemes relating
to his operation of a trucking
business known as CSA Business
Solutions LLC and another
Michigan-based trucking
company. RAY, who was
previously convicted of wire
fraud and bank fraud in the
Eastern District of Michigan
and was released from prison
in 2010, pled guilty before
United States District Judge
Analisa Torres
On November 14,
the US Attorney’s Office asked
for a sentence of 204 months,
