No parole

There's no parole in the Federal system. The best he can hope for is 4 months for good behavior. And the prosecutor has a significant say in where he goes, so you can probably bet he won't go to a Club Fed.

I'm willing to bet that MS takes him to court when he gets out. And Uncle Sugar will go after civil forfeiture. Add on his legal expenses and he'll be a pretty poor man.

Civil forfeiture: They can take your money, your house, your car, etc. If they can prove that you spent even one dollar of your ill-gotten gain on something like your house, the whole thing is their's.
