A sentencing delay is just the latest hold-up in the decade-old saga of convicted real estate fraudster Rick Koerber

It’s been 10 years since federal prosecutors first slapped prominent Utah real estate investment guru Rick Koerber with an indictment alleging he ran a Ponzi scheme and defrauded everyone around him while he enjoyed a lavish lifestyle.

And after a tortuous path of dropped charges, a hung jury and finally a conviction last fall, it was all supposed to end this week as Koerber would be sentenced for fraud, wire fraud and money laundering.

The sentencing for Koerber is being delayed a third time since the Utah County real estate investor was found guilty of 15 charges last September.
