HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo.—A 38-year-old Highlands Ranch is accused of defrauding his grandmother out of thousands of dollars so he could pay for multiple houses, luxury cars and furniture.
Denver’s KUSA-TV reports that court records show Kirt McGhee has been charged with theft, defrauding a creditor, identity theft, forgery and crimes against at-risk adults. He is accused of using his grandmother’s credit to buy four homes worth $2.5 million.
McGhee claims his grandmother knew about the loans and refinancing of homes that were foreclosed on. He tells KUSA he did nothing wrong and has been “completely thrown under the bus.”
His grandmother, who didn’t want her name used, says her grandson told her she was co-signing loans, but records show her as the sole owner. She says her home is in foreclosure.
