Loffredo Pleads Out on Domestic Violence Charges

Loffredo Pleads Out on Domestic Violence Charges

On Monday, accused fraudster Andrew Loffredo appeared before the 3rd Division District Court. 

Loffredo is facing a number of legal issues in various Rhode Island courts. More than a dozen of his business entities have been placed into receivership by Superior Court Judge Brian Stern. 

In those court proceedings, he faces accusations of fraud and other claims. READ MORE HERE

A number of his businesses have closed, including Campanella’s and Caffe Itri in Cranston, leaving workers out of work. About 50 employees lost their jobs with the closures of the two restaurants. 

 

He is accused of fraud. In a separate accusation of allegedly "borrowing" $475,000 — the life savings of one of his employees — he has not repaid the man.

 

And yet, in another incident, he transferred his parents' home to one of his companies, which is now in receivership.

 

And, one of his investors — Stephen Soscia — has told the court he is out approximately $30 million. Loffredo has previously told GoLocal he owes Soscia more like $15 million.

 

Monday’s Hearing

In the 3rd District Court, Loffredo was facing two domestic violence matters and one charge of filing a false report.

In exchange for a plea on one of the domestic violence charges, the other two charges were dropped.

Specifically, Loffredo pleaded nolo contendere.

 

At the time of publication, Loffredo did not respond to questions.
