    Peggy Fulford was a financial manager to the stars of athletic world, but it was only a matter of time before these parties learned that the charismatic Fulford had stolen and spent millions of their money. Stars like Ricky Williams and Dennis Rodman were among the people caught up in Fulford's schemes, and she used complex (albeit reckless) methods to convince them that their money was growing, while the opposite was true. Fulford made her clients feel loved and nurtured, and in the end they let their guards down completely. Now imprisoned for her numerous crimes, the details about these events can come fully to light.
