Shane Sperow sentenced
Last Spring we talked about Shane Sperow in Berks County, Pennsylvania, who told the judge in a fraud case that he was a highly decorated Marine who had survived combat in Iraq in order to get a reduced sentence. The detectives and prosecutor doubted his stories, though and discovered that Sperow had no military service.
Today we read that the judge wasn’t very forgiving the second time around;
A judge has ordered a Berks County man to spend time in prison for what prosecutors described as a case of stolen valor.
Shane Sperow entered an open plea in court Tuesday to a charge of unsworn falsification to authorities. He also admitted that he violated his probation for prior convictions for prohibited offensive weapons and theft by deception.
President Judge Paul Yatron sentenced Sperow to 21 months to five years in prison followed by three years of probation.
When police went to Sperow’s apartment, they found uniforms and phony documentation for his pretend military service.
We applaud the judge, but also the detectives and prosecutor who did the actual hard work when they suspected Sperow was a liar. Many wouldn’t go that extra mile.

He should have stuck to legal activities.
Keeping TS info on a home server.
Deleting and destroying evidence.
Inciting violence at campaign Rallies.
Lying to Congress.
Collusion with government agencies to squash investigations.
Using the IRS to go after political enemies.

With personal attention from Thor, Bubba, Julio and “Mr. Tiny”.
The system, although imperfect, does work from time to time.
Lying to a judge isn’t exactly a good idea. Sometimes they take it personally – and they’re in a great position when it comes time for “payback”.
O/T: From Breakingnews.com: AP reporting US defense chief orders Pentagon to stop seeking repayments of enlistment bonuses from California National Guard members.
Hopefully they’ll undo the damage they’ve already done.
I won’t hold my breath – don’t want to go unconscious and vote for Cankles in 6 different precincts again.
You never hear anyone claiming to be a “lowly decorated Marine”.
I was a moderately decorated Marine. Still waiting for the covered Precious Metals Recovery Expert Badge to make in my SRB.
When someone offers you something that seems too good to be true, it probably is. Be suspicious, get documents and keep many sets of copies in a safe place, and for something like this, don’t spend it. Since you have to pay the tax on it, the Big They should have to reimburse you for that, plus interest, plus a whole lot of other things too numerous to mention here.
Oops, wrong thread, my bad!
The article isn’t really clear, as I read it, regarding what happened here. Usually, a defendant who is placed on probation either has a sentence (say, three years) suspended in whole or part and he is released, if whole, immediately on probation. If he violates that probation, he is hauled back before the judge and, if found guilty, is given the previously suspended term. If no term was suspended, he is sentenced at the violation of probation hearing. Here, I’m not quite sure what happened. Was he sentenced for the original charges for which he rec’d probation or those AND stolen valor?
I have just e-mailed the Sheriff, thanking his staff:
“Hello Sheriff Weaknecht:
I just read, with pleasure, of your deputies and the prosecutor going above and beyond to know all possible about a criminal.
Please thank those involved for me, and for all other veterans and serving military. These phonies take from our resources, as well as demean our names, while standing in the blood of better men than they to make their phony claims.

If y’all would care to drop him an e-mail, I found this one for his department:

Thanks Frankie! I am writing him one as you read this.
Good outcome, fuck that guy.
I love a happy ending. I’d say “Fuck that guy” but I’m sure that Bubba & Thor already have a nice warm reception for him before he gets added to their harem!
His mustache’ was sentenced to 2 to 3 years as an accessory to douchebaggery and unnessarily excessive facial hair.
