'I'm So Ashamed,' Crook Tells A Federal Judge At Sentencing

Some guys never learn. After previously serving 15 months in prison for fraud, El Paso, Texas resident Scott Yermish has now been sentenced to 6 ½ years in another case, the San Antonio Express-News reported. This time, the 46-year-old Yermish had pleaded guilty to bilking investors out of $2.3 million, all the while calling himself “Scott Lindeman,” and claiming to be with a Connecticut firm called Interactive Brokers. But the only thing interactive that went on was theft, prosecutors said. Now, Yermish has also been ordered to make $2.3 million in restitution. “I'm so ashamed,” the Express-News quoted him as telling the sentencing judge. “I can't even look at some of these people in the eye.”
