    A federal district court judge will determine  any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. 

    This crime is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Assistant United States Attorney Timothy W. Gist is prosecuting the case. 

    An indictment merely contains allegations, and every defendant is presumed innocent unless and  until proven guilty.
