Potentially good news for Brian Dunning

Brian Dunning

Dunning, alleged skeptic and he of federal Internet cookie-stuffing fraud, pled guilty just over a year ago to said charges and awaits sentencing.

Dunning and his fans may have some reason to be hopeful on that count. Dunning's accomplice in crime, Shawn Hogan, was just sentenced and the terms are light.

If he's getting five months, unless there's other circumstances for a judge to consider, I guess Dunning gets four?

For the complete background on Dunning, including his fusion of libertarianism with skepticism, his seeming monetary empire off his alleged skepticism (not to mention the cookie stuffing) and more, see this blog post.
