However, on Friday, the Miami-Dade State Attorneys Office dropped Fuster's charges. Her case is considered closed.
On the other hand, Gonzalez and Williams will have a different outcome. The now co-defendants are facing a grand theft in the third degree charge. Prosecutors are no longer charging them for organizing a scheme to defraud.
Williams was the only who appeared in person. NBC6 asked him if he had any comment on the situation, but he refused to answer.

Gonzalez and WIlliams pleaded not guilty. Their next court date is Aug. 18.
