Forestry fraudster gets an extra two years in jail
Stage: Appeal
Plea: Guilty
Outcome: Re-sentencing Hevey to six years imprisonment, Mr Justice Patrick McCarthy said Arden FML could not be regarded as anything other than "an engine of fraud" because false names were used when the business of the company commenced. Sentencing Hevey to six years imprisonment today, Mr Justice McCarthy said "fraudulent conduct of the present kind" must fall into the most serious category of offending.
