Nancy J. Cain was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of fraud by wire and impersonating a federal officer. She pleaded guilty to the charges and is awaiting sentencing. Cain apparently used will-developed powers of persuasion to convince fraternity members at schools across the country that she was an assistant U.S. attorney, trying to aid a beautiful woman in distress. The victims would be convinced through a series of phone calls and personal meetings that Cain needed an immediate source of funds, but that she would be able to repay the money later. The indictment to which Cain has pleaded guilty involves a University of Pennsylvania student who spent $5,000 traveling to 20 different cities with Cain. _ Collegiate Medlines SUNDAY TELEVISION Midwest Community 0 KPRC 0 KBTX 0KCEN OKTBC ©KUHT ©KHOU ©KTRK ©KAMU ffiKVUE ©KTW ©KHTV HBO 0 0 O 0 © © © O O © O 0 0 0 O 0 © © © 0 o © World Of Mighty Jim New Zoo VVa Set Echoes Kids Are This Is It Is Rev.
