[H]ardOCP:

Carolyn Gudmundson, former program manager at MSN in charge of Microsoft’s internet domain names, was sentenced Friday to 22 months in prison and ordered to pay US$923,641 in restitution. She was convicted in January for running several scams that conned MS out of almost a million dollars.



At her sentencing, U.S. District Judge Ricardo S. Martinez suggested the sentence should serve as a deterrent to others. "Other employees who have similar opportunities to place their hands in the corporate till need to understand that society takes this sort of crime very seriously," he was quoted as saying in a Department of Justice press release.
