A telemarketer in Quincy, Mass., has pleaded guilty to duping donors into supporting charities and then using the money raised on himself, according to the Boston Business Journal.

George Borden, who claimed to be raising money for groups that benefit disabled veterans and retired police officers, pleaded guilty in Middlesex Superior Court to larceny, fraud, and other charges.

Mr. Borden was sentenced to 30 months in jail, followed by five years of probation.

He was also forbidden by the judge to raise money for charities and ordered to perform 200 hours of community service.

Prosecutors say a firm with which Mr. Borden was associated, CMR Marketing, misappropriated more than $100,000 raised from August 2006 to January 2008. The cases of four other co-defendants in the case are still pending.
