PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A long-powerful Pennsylvania senator has been re-sentenced to 61 months in prison in a sprawling corruption case, up from 55 months.
Vincent Fumo was convicted of defrauding the state Senate, a neighborhood nonprofit and museum of millions.
U.S. District Judge Ronald Buckwalter recalculated the sentenced Thursday.
The Philadelphia Democrat faced about 20 years under federal guidelines at his 2009 sentencing, but a judge initially sentenced Fumo to 4½ years.
