Eric E. Lenzen, a former high-powered attorney, has received a 16-month prison sentence and $4.2 million restitution for tax evasion totaling $2.46 million.
U.S. Magistrate Judge William E. Duffin remarked that Lenzen's conduct was 'exceptionally aggravated' as he attempted to thwart the government's recovery efforts.
