Mid-Michigan couple detained in Cancun over fraud allegations

Paul and Christy Akeo, a couple from Mid-Michigan, are detained in a maximum-security prison in Cancun without bail, following allegations of fraud against a hotel chain. The charges trace back to a canceled club membership contract with Palace Resorts, resulting in over $116,000 in disputed transactions. Despite claims from loved ones that the charges were settled and accusations of contract breach by the hotel, Mexican authorities allege evidence of fraud and have limited family contact with the couple.
