Former governor denied bid to stay free before appeal
Former Arizona governor Fife Symington saw his request to remain free during appeals denied by a judge. He faces a 24 year federal prison term for filing false financial statements to obtain loans for late 1980s real estate deals. He may begin serving next week, though motions could push his start into early April.
