Where ‘damning’ Craig Carton case goes from here
While the Craig Carton saga is just getting underway, it may be only the start of a long haul toward a resolution. The WFAN morning radio co-host, who was arrested Wednesday by the FBI on charges that he was behind a $5.6 million Ponzi scheme to repay his own gambling debts, could face trial by mid to late-2018, according to Richard Roth, a white-collar crime attorney at the Roth Law Firm in New York.

Carton is facing both a civil lawsuit from the Securities and Exchange Commission and a criminal lawsuit from the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s Office.
