CAMDEN: MILAN BEGINS SENTENCE
Former Mayor Milton Milan, 38, convicted of corruption charges in December,
is now serving his seven-year sentence at a low-security federal prison in
Loretto, Pa., where he was transferred Friday. It is a converted monastery
that houses 1,085 inmates, mostly nonviolent offenders convicted of white
collar crimes. Mr. Milan was expected to be placed in a room with as many
as four other inmates. Mr. Milan filed papers last month in federal court
stating his intent to appeal his Dec. 21 conviction. On June 15, Mr. Milan
was sentenced on 14 counts of corruption, including taking payoffs from the
mob, as well as concealing the source of a $65,000 loan from a drug
kingpin. (AP)
