Q: I fraudulently stole 5k from the SBA I was ordered to pay 7k in restitution including 2k accrued interest Please Explain
The court took 4 years to sentence me regarding this matter. The SBA loan accrued 2k in interest prior to my sentencing date. Even though the government recommended my restitution amount to be 5k, the judge sided with pretrial for the entire 7k. I was under the notion that interest couldn’t be included in the restitution amount only the actual loss. Please give me clarity on this and the TN statues related to this matter. Thank You
