Eichner Gets Nearly Five Years in Pitman Embezzlement

Eichner also caused wire transfers to be sent from Pitman accounts to pay for additional personal expenses he incurred, including a $30,000 wire to pay for cases of wine that he had purchased from Sotheby’s. In all, he fraudulently obtained more than $2 million as a result of the scheme, and purposefully failed to report the illicit proceeds of his scheme to the IRS.
