A federal jury has just found Lee County dentist Roy Silas Shelburne guilty on all counts of fraud. He was accused of doing unnecessary dental work and double-billing for it.

After more than seven hours of deliberations over two days, the jury found Shelburne guilty of health care fraud, racketeering, structuring a transaction to avoid reporting requirements and seven counts of money laundering.
His wife and three grown children burst into sobs, surrounded by tearful supporters as the jury read its verdict.
"We're just flabbergasted," said his mother, A. Drucelle Shelburne. "It's just absolutely unbelievable, inconceivable."
The court will reconvene at 1:30 to take up the issue of monetary forfeiture. Read tomorrow's Bristol Herald Courier to find out what happens in this matter, what family members have to say and what will likely happen next.

Is he the one who built the mansion on 58 from Duffield to Jonesville near DOT if I am not mistaken that sits about 200-300 yards off the road.

"Prosecutors also asked about his personal assets, including cars purchased for his daughters, and his house, which has a mortgage of more than $500,000.

He testified he did not try to shield his assets from seizure during a lengthy investigation of his dental practice, and that he was not under stress to meet more than $17,000 in monthly expenses."
