She came to fame as part of the “Dance Moms” phenomenon, but these days Abby Lee Miller is best known for her bankruptcy fraud charges.
The 50-year-old dance instructor pled guilty in Pennsylvania federal court today (June 27) and will be sentenced on October 11th, and she could face two years behind bars.
According to records, Miller concealed assets to the tune of $755,000 when she declared bankruptcy back in December 2010. She’s been hit with 20 counts of fraud and during her hearing, Abby stated, “Events over the past several months have been extremely challenging for me, my family, my friends and most important, my students. Because of this I made the very difficult decision to close the door on this chapter of my life by accepting responsibility for mistakes I have made along the way.”
