    Nyugen was jailed for 20 months and must serve at least eight months in prison before she is eligible for release on parole.

    She was also ordered to pay a $1500 fine.

    How much time did her husband get? If I am not mistaken he was accused of embezzling over 2m.

    Thankfully the article indicated that they were able to extract cash from the family business to repay all the stolen funds (after the government initially covered the victims shortfall). So often I worry that people in their position have to walk away with a giant hole in their net worth. It's still possible they took a financial hit with legal fees and opportunity costs etc. However, I worried it would be far worse

    I'm just about to file in court having been ripped off by someone who runs a program teaching vendor finance strategies. She's a licensed REA. It takes alot of time and effort to even locate the appropriate people to help you to deal with these crooks and get your money back. You can lose tens of thousands in a heartbeat by choosing the wrong lawyer. You're looking for people with runs on the board taking down con artists and hardened crooks, and those people don't advertise.
