A trio of fraudsters pleaded guilty to using money meant to feed Pennsylvania children to buy a line of luxury cars and fancy clothes, federal authorities said Thursday.Charles Simpson and Paige Jackson, both of Dallas, and Tanisha Jackson, of Memphis, all admitted to setting up a sham nonprofit that obtained federal funds supposed to provide meals to underprivileged kids after school and over the summer. But instead, the taxpayer funds went toward high-end clothes, air travel and hotel stays, and at least nine flashy cars — including a Bentley, two Land Rovers, two Maseratis, two Mercedes, a Hummer and a Porsche, the US Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Pennsylvania said Thursday.
