Teresa Jacobo, former city council person for the notoriously corrupt California city of Bell, was sentenced today. As you may recall, Ms. Jacobo was convicted earlier this year of misappropriating public funds, and struck a plea deal on additional charges.
And what do we have behind door #3 for Ms. Jacobo?
Two years in prison and “more than $242,000” in restitution payments.
The prosecution had requested four years; it seems like they’ve been requesting four years for all the council members.
