"News of a potential deal leaked on Friday, with a newspaper reporting the deal would also allow Tornillo's wife to avoid prosecution. Tornillo, who will reportedly surrender to authorities this week, will reportedly also be protected from further prosecution as part of the plea deal...
Prosecutors tracked the charges on union and personal credit cards for the past five years. He agreed to pay $650,000 in restitution, $160,000 in back taxes plus interest and penalties and a $25,000 fine."
I wonder how much else he stole PRIOR to the 5 years that were researched?! He also had an account which he used, that no one else knew about to hide the stolen money. I wonder, too, if there are more accounts out there yet to be uncovered.
Who will make sure that the restitution is even paid?
Why was this investigation and trial expedited...and by whom?
