Included in the convoy of supercars is a Porsche Cayenne GTS, which retails for $300,000, a Porsche 911 GT3, two Wolf GB08 Tornado racing cars, and a replica Ford GT40 coupe.

He was last year sentenced to a maximum of 15 years behind bars with his sister, Lauren Cranston, handed eight years for her lesser role in the scam.
