Fen-Phen Lawyers Jailed
Three personal injury lawyers sat in jail uniforms and shackles. The same attorneys involved in the fen-phen cases went to a federal court today to seek their release.
The crime is somehow acquiring 64 million of a 200 million dollar settlement relating to fen-phen in 2001. The three of them wanted, and got, and delay of their federal trial for fraud until January. the judge feels they are a flight risk but witnesses testified otherwise.
The judge ruled that the 3 lawyers will remain in jail until they complete a detail report of what money they received and where it went. At least one of the victims thinks the lawyers incarceration is an amusement.
