Antonella Carpenter was found guilty of fraud and other charges for falsely claiming to cure cancer with a laser.
We've talked about it on an episode way back, but just as a brief refresher, LazMed Inc. was a company run by a person named Antonella Carpenter. She wasn't a doctor, and she lied to people about being able to cure all cancers and eliminate tumors with a laser. In 2011, she was successfully sued for $2.5 million by a patient she had defrauded. And in 2016, she was found guilty of 29 counts, including fraud, inducing people to travel and interstate commerce in an effort to defraud them, and wire fraud.
