KY: Broker Accused Of Using Clients’ Credit Cards

Posted on November 23, 2010 by Dissent

Brett Howard spoke with WLKY News about the charges filed against him on Tuesday.

Howard said he started working as a mortgage broker for Homequest Mortgage in May 2009.

He said that by mid-August, he wasn’t making as much money as intended and so he started using his clients’ cards to get by and that it grew from there.
