Telecommunications entrepreneur Walter Anderson was sentenced Tuesday to nine years in prison for dodging federal and District of Columbia taxes, AP reports. He was ordered to repay $23 million to the city, but nothing to the feds -- even though he's estimated to owe the IRS $100 million to $175 million. That, said U.S. District Judge Paul Friedman, was because the Justice Department's plea agreement with Anderson listed the wrong statute. Not to worry, says Channing Phillips, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office. The IRS "has ample civil remedies available to recoup the money."
