He will likely do only 6 months of actual jail time and he can declare bankruptcy to avoid the $900K claimed by the city. By this time next year, he can exercise his control freakery at KFC protecting the Colonel's secret recipe.

Oh great, then I will have to stand in line for 10 days just to get freaking chicken because he won't let the cooks know which 11 herbs and spices to use in the crust, or worse, he will lie about the herbs and it will taste just like Bojangles chicken instead.

Rapers should be judged by rapers, at least they'll get how far this person has stepped out of line. Oh wait...
