During Pearlman’s sentencing in U.S. District Court this morning, Senior U.S. District Judge G. Kendall Sharp offered Pearlman an incentive to pay back his investors: for every $1 million he puts back in investors’ pockets, he gets one month off of his sentence. Since Pearlman’s sentence is for 300 months, he can avoid prison altogether if he forks up the cash. “I’m going to give you the keys to your jail cell,” Sharp said. But attorneys in the case say it’s unlikely there are any vast sums hidden and the prospect of Pearlman getting out of prison is unlikely.
