Hmmm: Federal Grand Jury Probing Graceland Scam

federal grand jury heard testimony Tuesday about a scam to steal the Graceland estate from Elvis Presley’s family. 

The subpoenaed witnesses included Rasheed Jeremy Carballo, a former acquaintance of Lisa Holden. Holden is a Branson, Missouri, woman with a long history of scams, forged checks and fraud, for which she served time in state and federal prisons. NBC News first reported on the connections between Holden and the Graceland plot in June: They include a roster of fake personas, post office boxes, and phone and fax numbers.

Carballo, who was Holden’s roommate, previously told NBC News that in early 2024 she had shared details about a deal to get millions of dollars from a foreclosure involving Lisa Marie Presley’s house.

This bizarre case has fascinated me since it first popped up in the headlines. The alleged scheme to steal Graceland had all sorts of chutzpah but no appreciation for the predictable reaction to the attempt. Looks like the Department of Justice wants to send a really clear message to mortgage scamsters.
