Mother and son convicted of forgery in disabled placard fraud
SAN FRANCISCO A mother and son who San Francisco prosecutors say lied to the state Department of Motor Vehicles to obtain disabled parking passes have been sentenced to three years of probation and 1,000 hours of community service.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that 29-year-old Guobin Qin and 50-year-old Qiaoyun Chen were sentenced on Tuesday after pleading guilty to felony forgery.
Prosecutors say they filed papers with a doctor's signature claiming they had a lung disease, but the doctor had no record of either of them being a patient.
Disabled placards allow people to park closer to buildings and not pay for metered spaces.
The mom and son were arrested in July. They were also each ordered to pay $4,100 in fines.
