Fraudsters admit faking daughter's death

A man accused of helping his wife fake leukaemia in their seven-year-old daughter to obtain thousands of dollars in donations has admitted a charge of endangering children.

Robert Milbrandt, of Urbana, Ohio, also acknowledged, without admitting guilt, that there was enough evidence to convict him of felony theft. He faces up to six years in prison and a $12,500 (€10,000) fine.
