Summary

A bill of information in United States v. Brian Shane Haigler, Docket No. 3:25-cr-168-KDB, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, Charlotte Division, filed June 30, 2025 as Document 1 in Case 3:25-cr-00168-KDB-SCR. Count One charges a wire fraud scheme under 18 U.S.C. § 1343 from at least as early as July 2019 through in or about December 2021. The information alleges that Haigler, treasurer of a church identified as Victim-Church 1, obtained more than $1 million from victim-investors for purported real estate deals, deposited approximately $389,000 of church funds into a personal account, and in April 2021 obtained a $311,000 EIDL in the church's name without its knowledge. It states that $300,000 of the EIDL proceeds was moved to a personal account, and the forfeiture notice seeks a money judgment of at least $1 million.
