LEE COUNTY, Fla. — A man accused in a complex crime involving fictitious court orders and liens against Judges, the Lee County Clerk of Court and lawyers has been sentenced in court.

Randal Rosado 45 was accused of creating his own court and used the judgments from the fake court to get the liens.

Two individuals, previously convicted in Lee and Okeechobee Counties, hired Rosado to assist them with the foreclosure of their homes.

Rosado was sentenced today to 40 years in prison on six counts of Unlawful Retaliation Against Public Officials and 13 counts of Simulating Legal Process.

At the sentencing hearing, Judge Richards indicated that Mr. Rosado was a danger to the citizens of the State of Florida and of the United States.
