O.C Lawyer Gets Jail Time in Bail Bond Scheme
We previously posted back in October about Joseph G. Cavallo, an Orange County criminal defense attorney, and Xtreme Bail Bonds. The kickback scheme in which Cavallo pleaded guilty earlier this year was a result of Cavallo paying Xtreme Bail Bonds $50,000.00 over a two year period for referring inmates to his practice.
Last Friday, Cavallo was sentenced to six months in jail, much less compared to the three years in prison he could of faced.
Cavallo finally left the courthouse without speaking to reporters. His attorney, John D. Barnett, had argued his client should serve no time behind bars because he was less culpable than the bail agents involved.
