Cancer scammer receives 88-month prison sentence

James Gary Davidson, operator of a Mexican cancer clinic that treated people with a fraudulent magnetic device, has been sentenced to 88 months in a US Federal prison followed by 2 years of supervised release. In June 2000, he and five others were charged with criminally defrauding investors as well as clinic patients. In March 2002, he pleaded guilty to mail fraud and money laundering and agreed to pay $675 000 in restitution, which he paid on the day he was sentenced.
