If the judge agrees and doesn't send Vincent to prison, how do you know Magic won't do that?

Jay Vincent, 52, returns to federal court in Grand Rapids for sentencing on Friday, nearly a year after pleading guilty to fraud and tax charges.
Prosecutors say he and an associate defrauded 20,000 people out of more than $1 million by charging them to become certified home inspectors through a business called Foreclosure Bank Inspection. No inspectors were hired, and the business had no contracts with banks, according to the government.
"I know what he did was wrong and I hope in time he will be able to repay all the people who lost money in this situation," Johnson said this week in a letter to U.S. District Judge Robert Jonker. "I believe he got involved with the wrong people and made some really bad decisions."
"With all due respect to the parties involved, and my heart goes out to them, I ask again that you consider his time served and have mercy on him and not allow this one incident of bad decision-making to change the course of his life," Johnson told the judge.

Just a thought Magic, with your net worth being $500 million and "your heart going out" to the defrauded victims, hows about you pay them back and let Jay Vincent pay you back the 1 million?

and "in time" "he" might be able to after Magic gives him the money.
Nothing to indicate Magic is going to pay them back. He certainly hasn't yet.
Seems like it would really impress the judge if the victims were paid back 1st then Magic asked for no jail time for Vincent.
Nothing to indicate he won't.
Why? So it would look like Magic was buying the judge's favor? I'm sure that would go over great.
look at how mono treats other TLC members
tbh, Magic should offer the judge the cure for aids so his friend can walk free
5 fish caught and counting.
Magic is a ing hypocrit
Nothing new here
Judge didn't buy Magics cuppycake bull either.
Jay Vincent gets 5½-year prison term
Associated Press
LANSING, Mich. -- Former NBA player and Michigan State star Jay Vincent was sentenced Friday to more than five years in prison and ordered to pay more than $110,000 to the Internal Revenue Service for his part in a fraud case involving thousands of people who paid to become certified home inspectors.
Magic Johnson offers 1 million dollars to LeBron/whoever wins the dunk contest.
Sorry Jay.
"Please, LeBron, get in the dunk contest. I'm going to put up a million dollars," Johnson said on ESPN's Kia NBA Countdown. "A million dollars from Magic to LeBron. Please get in the dunk contest. I go every year. I want to see you out there. A million to the winner."

Vincent, 56, who now lives in a nearby halfway house, will reportedly work at Juicy Burger signing autographs, greeting customers and serving food for a minimum of four months before going on tour to promote two books he wrote while behind bars. He told CBS Detroit he has been promised $24 million in earnings from the books.
