And some of them become prime minister . . .

I mean, it seems like the statute of limitations for most crimes expire before anyone is actually brought to trial. Or is that only for white-collar crimes?

They will still appeal the convictions, though. Note that he still faces potential jail time for threatening witnesses in the original proceeding.

As we know the Calciopoli scandal already finished and Moggi received a 5 year ban from football. Yes Nnahoj, it seems I should’ve been more specific.

From my understanding this was a separate trial with separate defendants (other than Moggi). The only common factor (again, from my understanding) between the two was that the wire taps that led to the outbreak of the Calciopoli scandal was actually set up for the purpose of bringing down GEA.
