Guardala Sentenced ~ 48 Months
Dave Guardala was sentenced today in Federal Court in Islip, New York.
Having plead guilty to numerous counts of fraud and involved in a plea bargain
deal for admitting his guilt, Guardala was sentenced to 48 months. With time
served at nearly 2 years, and a possibility of early parole if he is really nice
in prison, he should be out in a little less than 2 years.
Federal cases require a minimum of 80% time served. The decision is made by
the correctional facility as to when he will actually be released.
He will have 3 years of court involvement after that, and will not be given
a passport or travel privileges for some time. He is supposed to pay back
victims but we know he is unlikely to do so.
These are the facts.
The rest of the story is to come, but requires some process time and a
clearer head to organize.
Thanks for your interest and support over the years since this went
online.

Congrats to Dave Guardala's Lawyer
He played the Federal Attorney and Judge for fools.
He takes a case that an incompetent predecessor could not handle and agrees to have his client plead to 57 months, down from 30 years and promises to have his client repay the million he stole that is the subject of the indictment.
The probation report comes back that he can't possibly pay restitution i.e the Lawyer was lying to the court. So what does the client get in return--much less than he agreed to.
This case should never have been opened to pleas. The evidence is reported to be overwhelming. But when you have a Federal Attorney and A Judge who would rather not do their jobs and try this case, this is the injustice that happens and why the legal profession is hated.
Dave Guardala's victims are victims once more.
Could Dave have made a million (forgetting the other few million he stole that he was not indicted for, in 48 months, honestly?
Good investment, Guardala-you win.. Nice going, since you can't afford the even better return of a campaign contribution
Dave's victims deserved better.
To them, I offer this form a very wise man-

I bought a "Guardala" from Woodwind Brasswind. Seems theycome from Bill Lewington in the UK. Do these mouthpieces have anything in this world to do with Dave Guardala? They claim they are Laser Trimmed? The one I bought from Woodwind Brasswing is a piece of junk. Reply to this
