Anne Hathaway's Ex Raffaello Follieri Gets 4-1/2 Year Prison Sentence

In a Manhattan federal court yesterday, a judge handed down a 4-1/2 year prison sentence to. He was also fined $1,400 and will serve three years of supervised release after completing his time at either Fort Dix, New Jersey or Otisville, New York. His next hearing is set for December 12, 2008 when he will find out which facility will be his new home for the next 54 months.

The wayward ex boyfriend of actress Anne Hathaway could have received up to 265 years in prison after pleading guilty to 14 counts and was 'awarded' the lighter sentence with the understanding that his lawyer cannot appeal the verdict.

Hathaway assisted the FBI in the hours prior to his arrest. She has apparently moved on with her life and has been able to put this chapter behind her. She is even tantalizing us with rumors of a new mystery man.

Follieri made a statement before the court saying: "The most important thing I want the court to know is I was not raised with bad values...I started off with good intentions. What I did was wrong and there is no point in making excuses."

His lawyer followed up by adding: "He started out with good intentions and then sunk and sunk into a quagmire of his own making."

What's that old saying? 'The road to Hell is paved with good intentions'. That just about sums it up.
