'Swiss Gigolo' Gets 6 Years in BMW Heiress Case

A man dubbed "the Swiss gigolo" by the German media was sentenced to six years in prison Monday for defrauding Germany's richest woman of $9 million (euro 7 million) and attempting to blackmail her for tens of millions more.

Helg Sgarbi admitted to the Munich court that he threatened to release secretly recorded videotapes of trysts with BMW heiress Susanne Klatten, 46, unless the married woman gave him millions of euros to keep quiet.

This guy has a great racket going. This isn't his first time and won't be his last unless the jail time is especially hard on him. Why can't people with loads of money just run crap like this through a sensible money manager or accountant. So this guy I met randomly a couple of times and have been f'ing ran over a girl in the states and needs 9 million Euros in a cardboard box to take care of the situation. What do you think?
