Richard Keefe, of Rock Falls, IL, pleaded guilty to a one-count felony charge filed last Nov. 4 in U.S. District Court in Chicago. He was charged with making false statements, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine for individuals.

The maximum fine may be increased to twice the gain derived from the crime or twice the loss suffered by the victims if either of those amounts is greater than the statutory maximum fine.
