Federal prosecutors are now recommending only five months in prison for Arne Fuglvog, rather than the 10 months called for in a plea agreement.
The recommendation is in this sentencing memorandum filed yesterday in federal court in Anchorage.
Some incredible reading here, let me tell you, including details on why Fuglvog broke the law and his cooperation with investigators.
Sentencing is scheduled for 8 a.m. Tuesday for Fuglvog, a former fisheries aide to U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski.
Fuglvog in August pled guilty to a commercial fishing violation prior to joining the senator's staff.
Well it's official,IT IS going
ReplyDeleteto be about fisheries crimes.
Arne I hope you deserve that reduction
and gut everyone of the Corrupt Bastards.
arne should be looking for a new apartment in argentina.
ReplyDeletestay away from airplanes,darl alleys....etc.
Arne should receive a much harsher sentence. Like 5 years in jail and a million dollar fine, what he did was not just criminal it was reprehensible. He stole from all of the other fishermen because he wasn't good enough to catch his fish in the designated area.
ReplyDeleteHe was a NPFMC member and it doesn't surprise me that he was corrupt as most of them are and have been since the 1990's.
I doubt he gave much up information to the Feds on other illegal acts within the fishing industry. He should be telling the truth of how Bering Sea Pollock & Crab Ratz were pushed through by Ted Stevens illegally with the help of former NPFMC chairman Dave Benton and et al. I'm sure there are many skeletons in his closet that he wouldn't speak a word about otherwise many factions in the fishing industry that control the council seats (including NOAA GC and James Balsiger) would be put in jail for false testimony & racketeering.
And if you delete this Wesley you are part of the conspiracy. Don't worry we'll just have others repost it!
Anon 11:12 makes a good point. What we really need the judge to hear from Fuglvog is about how the NPFMC operated - especially why it allowed Crab Capts and Crew to continually get ripped off, for up to a half billion bucks so far. And how his office at Murkowski operated. But that's outside the Lacey Act violation, so he will keep a zipper mouth, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteThe Kamilar got a $6,000 ticket
ReplyDeletefor taking to much Halibut 10 years
ago. Don't they count that as a fishing
violation ?
The best part is that Arne was againist the Vessel monitoring system, which would show where each boat is fishing.
ReplyDeleteHis abuse of power would make him a complete scumbag.
I take that back, even scumbags have a use.
