REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - A judge on Friday sentenced disgraced political donor Norman Hsu to three years in state prison after rejecting the one-time Democratic rainmaker's bid to throw out a 16-year-old fraud conviction.

Hsu's lawyers had asked Superior Court Judge Stephen Hall to dismiss his 1992 no-contest plea, arguing his right to a speedy trial was violated because authorities weren't actively pursuing him during his years as a fugitive. They could easily have arrested Hsu, his lawyers argued, at one of the fundraisers he hosted in California for prominent local politicians.

Hsu also faces federal fraud charges in New York.

Okay..he is still pending charges for the same thing in New York and Federal Charges as well. Not to mention the numerous civil law suites by investors who were taken. This is the guy who was referred to has Hillary Clinton Money Machine. Part of his scheme was to have would be investor donate $4,000.00 to Democrates candidates, the biggest reciever was Hillary R. Clinton, his choosen candidate. There are still rumors that Clinton did not return all the money she got. Orginally she only wanted to return about $20,000 but returned $86,000.
