According to Fox 16 News, a Sherwood woman has been sentenced to 15 months in prison on money laundering charges. The charges against 63-year-old Karen Hoskins stem from February 2021, when her son, Brian Jeffrey Litton, and eight others were indicted for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and other offenses.
Litton was released to home detention with an electronic monitor, required to reside in Arkansas, and maintain contact with his probation officer and defense attorney. Hoskins pleaded guilty to one count of money laundering in August of last year.
This sentencing highlights the serious consequences of involvement in financial crimes, even in connection with family members’ illegal activities.
