Anne Hathaway‘s loser ex, Raffaello Follieri, is about to make a deal with prosecutors.
With his bail at $21 million, the crooked Follieri has been behind bars since June 24th, when he was arrested.
The scumbag stole millions of dollars from investors.
How?
He said he worked for the Vatican and would supposedly give them first grabs on flipping Catholic Church Properties. He is also being accused of stealing up to $6 million from his investment firm and wasting it on himself, Anne, and a luxurious lifestyle.
If convicted of wire fraud and money laundering, Follieri could spend up to nine years in jail.
But now, Assistant US attorney Jennifer Burns has confirmed that “Follieri is in plea discussions.”
So if he takes a plea deal, he could be looking at five to six years!
As for Follierir’s lawyer, Flora Edwards, she’s surprised to hear of any plea talks.
She says, “I’m certainly not saying that, and I’m not sure it’s appropriate. As far as I’m concerned, we’re looking forward to our day in court.”
Let’s hope he spends a lot of time in jail thinking about what he’s done.
And hopefully everyone can get some of their money back.
