Gotti grandson sentenced for fraud

A federal judge rejected Agnello's plea for leniency, which included a claim that he needed to remain free to donate a kidney to his mother, Victoria Gotti.

Prosecutors presented evidence that Agnello used the stolen funds to invest in cryptocurrency and fund a lavish lifestyle.

In addition to the prison term, he has been ordered to pay full restitution and perform 100 hours of community service.

The sentencing marks the end of a high-profile case that highlighted the widespread abuse of pandemic relief programs.
