On March 12, 2010, Richard Depamphilis and Vicki Nanninga, a New York Police Department Detective and an owner of Stone Horse Inn, a retirement home for horses in Pennsylvania, respectively, were arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court and pled guilty to Offering a False Instrument for Filing in the 2nd Degree.
Depamphilis admitted to steering a $2 million contract, to board retired NYPD horses to Nanninga in December 2006. Nanninga admitted that she submitted a false application stating that Stone Horse Inn had 35 acres of pasture when in reality it only had 19 acres of land.
Both defendants will receive a Conditional Discharge and expected to pay a $25,000 over 5 years to the New York Police Department.
