Wine Fraudster Loses Bid For Freedom

Description

The convicted Indonesian wine dealer Rudy Kurniawan has failed to persuade a U.S. judge to set aside his 10-year prison term. Kurniawan was convicted for counterfeiting an estimated $30 million of wine. on Monday, U.S. District Judge Richard Berman rejected Kurniawan’s argument that his trial lawyers represented him ineffectively. When Kurniawan was arrested on March 8, 2012, Federal Bureau of Investigation agents observed crates and wine bottles stacked 15 feet (4.5 m) high near the front door of his home, in plain view. Prosecutors have said Kurniawan mixed some of his fake wine in his kitchen. Kurniawan will be eligible for release in January 2021.
