Accountant admits to making fake documents

Prosecutors said Monday that 64-year-old James Vaughn of Albuquerque pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor for the offense.


Vaughn is expected to be sentenced to one year of probation.

Prosecutors say Vaughn in 2013 provided a fake document to a client, who asked him for proof that he had resolved a federal tax lien.

Rather than resolving the lien, prosecutors say Vaughn provided the client with fake treasury documents.
