William Liberman of Florida was sentenced to 84 months in prison for his role in a stock pump-and-dump scheme.  Liberman and his co-conspirators made false representations about the performance of multiple companies of which he was an officer, in order to drive up the value of the stock and enrich themselves.  Liberman earned more the $1.2 million through the scheme, which left 12,000 investors with a total loss of $19 million.  He also failed to report the income, evading over $400,000 in federal taxes, which he has been ordered to pay, along with $5.3 million in restitution to investors.  USAO CT
