Abby Lee Miller of ‘Dance Moms’ Indicted On Fraud Charges
Abby Lee Miller, the loud-mouthed dance instructor who regularly makes children cry on Lifetime‘s Dance Moms has been indicted by a Pittsburgh grand jury on 20 counts of fraud.
Miller is charged with “bankruptcy fraud, concealment of bankruptcy assets and false bankruptcy declarations” for hiding $755,000 in earnings. Each of her currents charges comes with a $250,000 fine.
According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, “The indictment, handed up Tuesday, charges that when Ms. Miller reorganized her dance studio — the Abby Lee Dance Co. in Penn Hills — in December 2010.”
“She schemed to defraud the bankruptcy court by hiding her income from the reality-TV, Lifetime show Dance Moms and related spinoffs, as well as from dance sessions and merchandise sales.”
She faces five years in prison for fraud and $5 million in fines if convicted. We think she could handle it.
