Sentence includes $275K restitution
In addition to the term of imprisonment, U.S. District Judge Leonie M. Brinkema, ordered Miller to serve one year of supervised release and to pay restitution to the United States in the amount of $735,933.
But what's a half mil among friends? ;)
This is your 4th such posting.
Hopefully none of these will tarnish Obama’s scandal free 8 years.
More seriously, do you think these are a result of a President Trump crackdown? I sure hope so, then there will be many more to come.
ONE YEAR for stealing all that money, especially if you are a democrat...
...or if your name is Martha Stewart and you slightly did something appearing to be the same thing congress critters permit themselves to do every day, namely, benefit in investments from their inside knowledge...
FORTY YEARS (ie, “life”) if you pay “donations” (and still pay the high inflated tuition) to get your kid a possiblly newly minted spot in the college she wants...
Fair? Consider...
(1) Greater sentence for the first.
(2) For the second, make insider trading for congress critters illegal and with WORSE penalties than for other people. And diverting money from our US treasury to foreign countries and the sneakily back to politician controlled “foundations” should be severely punished.
(3) For misguided hyper parents, make the penalties FAIR for their silly pay to play machinations at private colleges — it is not a crime worthy of prolonged jail time!
When you sign a return you waive your Constitutional rights. But if you don’t sign the return you will go to prison.
Seems hard to understand how being forced tot sign a return is legal.
Anyhow. If you knowingly sign a false return you are in essence making a false sworn statement, and that is a felony.
