1-3 years in prison for Brooke Astor’s Son

1-3 years in prison for Brooke Astor’s Son. The Brooke Astor’s old son 19 January was called to the head of the prison, where he will stay there for 1 to 3 years.

Anthony Marshall, 85, had been found guilty of 14 of the 15 counts against him. Marshall was convicted of the most serious charges  first-degree grand larceny and scheming to defraud. He faced a minimum of one to three years, or as much as eight to 25 years in state prison.

One of the most serious convictions involved Marshall giving himself a $1 million-a-year raise for handling his mother’s affairs, said Assistant District Attorney Joel Seidemann. Marshall’s former lawyer, Francis Morrissey, was also convicted of five counts against him relating to the case, including forgery and scheming to defraud Astor.

After he was convicted in October, we wondered whether a judge would take Marshall’s age into account and hand down a light sentence. He was given the lightest sentence possible.
