Since its 1982 public opening, Graceland, Elvis Presley’s former home in Memphis, Tennessee, has continued to draw in visitors. But the ownership of the property was nearly in jeopardy last year when one Missouri woman attempted to defraud the Presley family out of the property.

A Missouri woman with a long history of financial scams admitted Tuesday that she tried to steal Graceland from Elvis Presley’s family by posing as a fake investor, a scheme that created international intrigue before NBC News revealed her role.

Feb. 25, Lisa Jeanine Findley, a Missouri woman who was arrested and charged in an alleged scheme to sell Elvis Presley's Graceland, pleaded guilty to mail fraud. She was arrested in August 2024.
