Disgraced former structured settlement broker Joe Gargan’s Covid-19 Hail Mary pass of excuses in relation to his criminal acts,  has resulted in a figurative sack of potatoes. Pretty soon he may be peeling them.

Gargan is going to prison and must report by January 4, 2021. Even the Kennedy legacy couldn’t save him.

70 months with 3 year supervised release term

Monetary penalties:

days of release, until paid in full.
2) The defendant shall apply all monies received from income tax refunds, lottery winnings,
