A shady ex-homeowners association president and her husband — who authorities said ran their Miami homeowner’s association like “an organized crime syndicate” — confessed this week to their part in a massive $11 million fraud that drained money from the community’s fund. Marglli Gallego, the former leader of the Hammocks Community Association, and her husband, Jose Antonio Gonzalez, admitted Thursday in a Miami-Dade court to the years-long scheme that prosecutors say ripped off 18,000 people. Gallego, 44, pleaded guilty to racketeering and grand theft, and was sentenced to seven years in prison and seven years of probation, according to office of Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle.
