NEW YORK (Reuters) – A U.S. judge handed a 12-year prison sentence on Thursday to Hassan Nemazee, a former fundraiser for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton who admitted to a $292 million fraud of three major banks.
Nemazee had pleaded guilty on March 18 to charges of bank fraud and wire fraud over loan transactions ...
.. also sentenced to three years of supervised release .. ordered to make $292.3 million in restitution to the banks.
U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein in Manhattan pronounced the prison sentence, which is shorter than the term requested by prosecutors. They had sought a term of between 15 years and six months and 19 years and six months.
Nemazee was one of the top "bundlers" of contributions to Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, according to the Center for Responsive Politics' OpenSecrets.org.
He typically donated more than $100,000 annually to Democrats including Clinton, now U.S. secretary of state.

Would it not be cheaper and easier to automatically sentence each and every dim-bulb-crat and their fundraisers.
Face it.
They are all crooks.
Sleazy crooks.
Obama-level awful crooks.
Well, not to worry!
This simply "isn't the Hassan Nemazee that 0 knew".
So.
Sentenced to jail - yet walks away ...
Life is sweet.
U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein in Manhattan pronounced the prison sentence, which is shorter than the term requested by prosecutors. They had sought a term of between 15 years and six months and 19 years and six months.

Another renegade Amish?
But Tony Rezko doing it for Obama is a.o.k.
He was made a crook practically from the cradle and I have a feeling he will still have his fingers stuck somewhere long after pushing up daisies.
Something big is coming from the Obama/Soros crime family that will change the whole world.
Was it reported anywhere in the state-run media?
So when are they going to arrest Obama and Hillary?
The article says 12 years in prison PLUS three years of supervised release.
