| Subject: Congrats and well done: Former Congressman Chris Collins sentenced to 26 months in prison for insider trading Sun Jan 19, 2020 4:22 am | |
| Former Congressman Chris Collins was sentenced Friday to 26 months in prison for his role in an insider trading scheme. He pleaded guilty in October to conspiracy to commit securities fraud and lying to law enforcement officials. Collins, the first member of Congress to back President Trump, was indicted in August 2018 for using inside information about a biotechnology company to help his son make illicit stock trades. The indictment charged Collins, his son and the father of his son's fiancee with conspiracy, wire fraud and other counts. Collins broke down in court on Friday, according to The Associated Press. "I stand here today as a disgraced former member of Congress," he said. "My life has been shattered."
