A federal judge has sentenced former receiver Lewis Freeman to 10 years, including 21 months of house arrest after prison. Freeman pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit mail fraud in March after admitting he took $2.6 million from court-supervised accounts and misappropriated at least $6 million by shifting money among accounts he was appointed to oversee. Federal prosecutors had asked for the maximum sentence under sentencing guidelines, or 12 1/2 to 15 1/2 years.

Choking back tears, Lewis Freeman faced his wife and children in federal court and apologized for committing a $2.6 million theft that would send him to prison.
“Parents try to teach their kids how to live their lives,” he said Friday. “Abigail and Jeremy, I know you’re smart enough to see the example I’ve set and not to follow it. The example I’ve set for you shows that money means nothing and honor is everything. I know you both will do great. I love you.”
