已故黑帮头目John Gotti的孙子、电视真人秀明星Carmine Agnello在多次试图延迟入狱后,最终被联邦法官下令立即向当局投案[1]。Agnello因电信欺诈罪被判处15个月监禁[1],他曾声称需要向患肾脏疾病的母亲捐献肾脏,以此作为推迟服刑的理由[1]。
联邦法官Nusrat Choudhury拒绝了这一请求,指出"没有具体证据表明器官移植将在今天至2026年9月18日之间的任何时间进行"[1]。法官在周一的判决中认定再次延期无法接受[1]。Agnello此前已获准将原定于7月的入狱时间推迟至9月18日[1],但最终未能获得进一步延期。
Agnello于2024年因欺诈认罪,他在新冠疫情期间虚假申请获得了110万美元的联邦小企业贷款[1]。在欺诈过程中,他谎报了公司的员工数量、隐瞒了自己的犯罪记录,并将所得资金挪作他用,包括投资42万美元从事加密货币业务[1]。Agnello已被确认在新泽西州南部的Federal Correctional Institution Fairton开始服刑[1]。
Carmine Agnello, grandson of deceased mob boss John Gotti and a reality television personality, has been ordered to report immediately to federal prison to begin serving a 15-month sentence for fraud.[1] U.S. District Judge Nusrat Choudhury rejected Agnello's repeated attempts to postpone his surrender, ruling that his claim of needing to donate a kidney to his ailing mother lacked credible documentation.[1] "Because there is no concrete evidence that an organ transplant will be scheduled to take place at any time between today and Sept. 18, 2026, the request for another deferral of Mr. Agnello's self-surrender is unjustified," the judge stated.[1]
Agnello was initially scheduled to report in July but received a delay until September 18, 2026, which he subsequently sought to extend further.[1] He pleaded guilty in 2024 to wire fraud after illegally obtaining $1.1 million in federal small business loans during the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] According to prosecutors, Agnello falsified the number of employees at his company, concealed his criminal history, and diverted the funds to other purposes including a $420,000 cryptocurrency business investment.[1] Agnello will serve his sentence at Federal Correctional Institution Fairton in southern New Jersey.[1]
