A 270-count criminal indictment filed Wednesday in Nevada state court alleges that more than 150 victims lost money to schemes that April Parks headed with A Private Professional Guardian company office manager Mark Simmons and Parks' friend, Gary Neil Taylor.
Together, they're accused of racketeering, theft and exploitation of a vulnerable person.
Attorney Noel Palmer Simpson faces theft and filing false instrument charges.
Attorneys for Parks and Simmons didn't immediately respond to messages. It's not clear if Taylor has a lawyer.
More than 200 counts name Parks, who officials say now lives in Pennsylvania.
