"We found one victim homeless, living in her car, because of mounting medical bills and five families left with no death benefits after fatal accidents," said Florida Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink.  "Floridians suffered greatly and did not receive needed medical care and workers' compensation benefits because these individuals were interested in only enriching themselves," Sink said.

Three of the men are facing 215 years or more in prison if convicted on the counts against them, according to authorities.
