Money being paid back to Benny Judah victims

LUBBOCK,TX (KCBD) -

One million dollars. That's how much a court-appointed receivership trustee will pay victims of a local Ponzi scheme in their next payment.

According to court documents, roughly 250 investors put up more than $35 million dollars with Benny Judah. As more of property is sold off, more money is partially paid back to the victims.

Investors have already been paid $6.3 million. After this next payment they will have gotten 29% of their money back.

Judah was sentenced to 25-years in prison.
