Mr. O'Brien pled guilty to two counts of failure to file income taxes, and two counts of failure to pay income taxes. He faces a maximum sentence of four years in prison. Mr. Bharara has concluded the appropriate sentence, following the official sentencing guidelines, is 37-46 months, the reduction from the maximum attributable to his accepting responsibility.

 

Sentencing will take place at a later date.
