Sentence

Total prison terms of 60 months on Count 2, 60 months on Count 3, 60 months on Count 4, 36 months on Count 5, 36 months on Count 6, 36 months on Count 7, 240 months on Count 8 and 360 months on Count 9. All terms to run concurrently.

Supervised release (probation) for terms of 5 years on Counts 2, 3, and 4; 1 year on Counts 5, 6, and 7; 3 years on Count 8; and 5 years on Count 9. All terms to run concurrently.

He has to give up DNA, undergo drugs testing (1 within 15 days of release, 2 more times within the remainder of his probation), drug counseling (which may include testing and inpatient or outpatient treatment, counseling, or a support group, at the probation officer's discretion), and psychological/psychiatric counseling. He also has to tell everyone that he lives with and works with that he might be searched if his probation officer has a reasonable suspicion that he's got something that he's not supposed to have.

Finally, there's an $800 penalty and $24,240,747 in forfeitures.

He did get a bone, though. The judge recommends that he be incarcerated in the penitentiary in Terre Haute, Indiana. That'd be the maximum security prison where death row is located. As rough as that might sound, it's at least close enough for his family to visit him. It's also not the Administrative Maximum Security, Florence unit where he would live life on permanent lock-down (as is apparently the case currently).
