Former Colombia anti-corruption chief jailed four years for bribery
The former Colombian National Director of Anti-Corruption was sentenced Wednesday to four years in prison after a DEA sting in Miami caught him soliciting a $132,000 bribe to undermine an investigation into a local politician.
Luis Gustavo Moreno Rivera, 37, pleaded guilty in August to charges that he conspired to launder money in order to promote foreign bribery.
Moreno faced up to nine years in prison under the federal sentencing guidelines. But U.S. District Judge Ursula Ungaro said she considered that Moreno had already been sentenced to five years in Colombia for extortion.
