The Malaysian contractor known as “Fat Leonard,” who bribed dozens of high-ranking U.S. Navy officers in the service’s worst-ever corruption scandal, was sentenced Tuesday in San Diego federal court to 15 years in prison.

Leonard Glenn Francis, 60, will likely spend about 8½ more years in federal prison when accounting for the credit he’ll receive from the time he has already been held in custody. He could serve even less if he qualifies for early release, though his attorney warned the judge that a lengthy prison term would be “essentially a death sentence” for Francis, who has dealt with severe health issues.
