Two conspiring financial group executives who conned thousands of victims in the largest Ponzi scheme in Georgia history were handed light prison sentences — as one con man declared he was a “coward” for the heartless crimes. Ex-Drive Planning Chief Operating Officer David Bradford and Chief Administrative Officer Julie Edwards helped CEO Todd Burkholter orchestrate a plot that defrauded over 2,000 investors out of $380 million to help fund their lavish lifestyles. Bradford and Edwards were sentenced to measly four years and two years behind bars for their roles in the nefarious ruse that spanned several years, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
