Ciao, bella: International con artist and Anne Hathaway's ex boyfriend, Raffaello Follieri, got handed a 4 1/2 year prison sentence after pleading guilty to 14 counts of conspiracy, wire fraud, and money laundering.

The Italian gentleman had promised investors, including Clintonite/Jared Paul Stern-outer Ron Burkle, that he would use his connections to the Vatican to ensure their money was put in the right expenditures, Follieri instead used the cash to pony up expensive trips and gifts for Hathaway, while living with his parents in a $37,000-a-month apartment. So he may have been a terrible liar, but he was a wonderful son:

"The most important thing I want the court to know is I was not raised with bad values. … I started off with good intentions, determined to run an honorable business and make everyone proud of me."

See? This is what happens when a nice Catholic boy meets an investor with an interest in buying real estate from the church. Someone always ends up in jail. Oldest story in the (bible)book.
