David Correia is sentenced to a year in prison for lying to the government and for using his company Fraud Guarantee for, you guessed it, fraud.
Correia established the business Fraud Guarantee with the Ukraine-born Lev Parnas, with whom he was first indicted in late 2019. The company is the same one Parnas used to hire Giuliani, then the personal attorney to President Donald Trump, in a relationship that has drawn scrutiny from federal prosecutors…
Judge Oetken, an Obama appointee, noted during the hearing Monday that Correia raked in a profit of $43,000 — just 2% of what was a $2.3 million investment fraud. Prosecutors say the bulk of the funds went to Parnas.

Most stories about Correia focus on Lev Parnas, but Correia did more for the Trump crime cult than just co-run Fraud Guarantee with Parnas.
