Former Southern Calif. College President Nabbed in FBI Sting

Alan Weston Charged with Bank Fraud, Money Laundering

By Editorial Staff
A January 12, 1993 article in the Los Angeles Times reported that Alan Weston, former president of the Southern California College of Chiropractic, and alleged accomplices Rabbi Abraham Low and Sharlesetta Brown, were arrested and arraigned on charges of "money-laundering schemes totaling $2 million." All three pleaded not guilty to "20 charges of bank fraud, money laundering, conspiracy and possession of a forged security."

Bail was denied to Weston and his alleged accomplices during a hearing where "it was disclosed that he is currently a nonpracticing chiropractor" (L.A.

Times, January 13, 1993).

The event is further reported in the January 27 issue of the Times: "If convicted on the 20 counts filed against them, including conspiracy and possession of a forged security, the defendants could face decades in prison and millions of dollars in fines."

A January 28th Times article correctly reports Alan Weston as a "financial consultant," instead of a chiropractor. The article goes on to review his "troubled past" including his brief stint as academic dean of Cleveland College of Chiropractic and concluded with his role as president of Southern California College of Chiropractic.
