Television pitchman Kevin Trudeau is headed to prison - CNN.com
He's getting 10 years in prison for misleading infomercials and misrepresenting his weight-loss books. The judge said that he has been attempting to cheat others for his own personal gain since he (Trudeau) was 25 years old. He is now 51. The judge called him an "unrepentant, untiring, and uncontrollable huckster who has defrauded the unsuspecting for 30 years."
In my opinion, he's certainly not the only one. He just happened to be one of the worst, and he got caught - finally.
