Financier Reed Slatkin, a key player in the creation of Internet service provider EarthLink Inc., was sentenced on Tuesday to 14 years in prison after pleading guilty to bilking investors out of hundreds of millions of dollars.
A federal court in Los Angeles also ordered Slatkin to pay more than $240 million in restitution to clients of his fund management business.
The government had asked that he be sentenced to the minimum in a range from 11 years and three months to 14 years after defrauding investors of nearly $600 million, but Judge Margaret Morrow chose the more severe option.
"The havoc that the defendant has wreaked is immense, the loss is immeasurable," she told a courtroom packed with attorneys and victims of Slatkin.
It's nice to see a judge go for the higher sentence when it comes to going after these white collar crooks. As usual the prosecution just wants the maximum for young black kids.
TRUTH- DEPENDS WHERE YOU STAND. EACH OF US CARRIES A NEED TO BE HEARD. EVEN IF IT'S JUST TO VOICE INJUSTICE. WASHINGTON LEADERS, CAN NOT RELATE TO THE COMMON MAN FOR THE BRICKWALLS AND IRON GATES.
NOR DOES HE CARE WHY? HE DOESN'T HAVE TO. SEE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IS JUST A MEANS TO AN END. OUR MONEY HIS POCKET. THE PRESENT ADMIN.IS COMPLETELY BEYOND THE REACH OF THE COMMON AVERAGE AMERICAN. YOU CAN NOT SEND AN E. MAIL TO THE WHITEHOUSE, UNLESS YOU ARE PRIVILEGED, AND BROTHER THEY WILL TELL THAT TO YOU RIGHT AWAY.
JUSTICE IN AMERICA IS ALMOST A JOKE. THE GOVERNMENT KEEPS US ALL SO BUSY WATCHING OUR FEET AND WHERE WE STEP THAT WE CAN NOT SEE THE UNDERHANDED DEEDS OF THESE MEN.
THE PROBLEM IS LARGER THAN MOST CAN UNDERSTAND. WHY WERE THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN IRAQ LET TO HAPPEN.SIMPLE AN EASY WAY TO GET WHAT THEY WANTED.THE PEOPLE RESPONABLE WERE NOT ALL UNDER THE SAME COMMAND. THIS WAY WHEN THE BLAME GAME STARTED IT'S NOBODY FAULT. SO WE CAN BLAME THE PEOPLE WITHOUT RANK WHO WERE TOLD TO FOLLOW
ORDERS. BUT WHO GAVE THE ORDERS? AN ENLISTED SERVICE PERSON DOES NOT HAVE THE LUXURY DO SAY I DON'T LIKE THESE ORDRES SO I WILL NOT FOLLOW THEM. NOR CAN THEY REQUSET THE ORDERS BE WRITTEN.
NO GOVERNMENT IS PERFECT, BUT THE LIES THAT COME FROM THOSE IN POWER ARE THE SAME THAT HAVE DESTROYED ALL GREAT SOCIETIES. BUT TO START A WAR WITH LIES. WHOS MORE EVIL A PRESIDENT WHO KILLS THOUSANDS OF IT'S OWN AND OTHERS- OR A PRESIDENT THAT GETS A BLOW JOB IN THE OVAL ROOM.
BUT THAT IS THE TOP OF THE B.S. MOUND.
HERES WHAT GETS ME, IN THE RIUNS OF 911 YOU CAN SEE THE WORST OF MANKIND, NOT JUST THE ONES WHO DID THIS, NOT JUST THE ONES YOU LET IT HAPPEN, (THE SLAKERS) BUT THE ONES WHO STOOD SILENT,
IN EVERY PLANE AND IN EVERY BUILDING THE STRUCTURAL MAKE UP OF EACH HAS DANGEROUS MATERIAL IN IT.THE DANGERIOUS MATERIAL WHEN BURNT
GIVE OFF POISONOUS FUMES. THE CITY OF NEW YORK,
KNOWING THIS LET THE RESCUE WORKERS GO IN UNPROTECTED. IT WAS LATER THAT THEY STARTED WEARING MASK. BUT NOT ALL WERE GIVEN THE MASK.
THE SICKNESS THEY WILL ENCOUNTER IS BEGANING TO SURFACE. THIS MADE THE CRIMES WORST. THOSE TRYING TO HELP, WILL NEED HELP THEMSELVES. MEDICAL HELP.
I GUESS NO ONE IS LISTENING, BUT I WANTED TO TELL SOMEONE. MAYBE SOMEONE SOME WHERE CARES.
