Beck in Trouble Even If Case Is Not Retried
Beck faces potential prison time for falsifying union tax returns. Attorney Burdell said the government may skip retrial after the Supreme Court refused review of Beck’s two-count 1950 and 1952 tax convictions. The 67 year old could earn five years and a $20,000 fine in the federal case. The high court also upheld a state embezzlement conviction related to a Cadillac sale, with a possible 15 year sentence.
