Sextortionist sent to the slammer for 21 months
-

After an unusually protracted, painful pre-trail period, Jessica Wolcott has finally been sentenced. Or as the NY Post so artfully put it: “The soda swindler is headed to the can.” That swindler is, of course, the girl who attempted to extort $125,000 from Pepsi exec Gary Wandschneider, and was then subsequently nabbed by the Feds after her mark spilled the whole story in August 2006.
On Dec. 13, Judge Kenneth Karas imposed a 21-month jail term, effectively rejecting please from Wolcott’s attorney, Susanne Brody, for leniency. According to The Journal News account, Wolcott had told friends in email that “she would get ‘a slap on the wrist’ if she got caught,” and Judge Karas in turn “threw those words back at Wolcott, 23, yesterday, sending her to prison for 21 months and calling her a grifter and a con artist.”
Among the other details in the two accounts of the sentencing:
• The judge did not determine what kind of monetary restitution Wolcott would pay.
• Wandschneider either made close to $1 million a year, according to TJN, or $6 mil a year, accoding to the Post (not to play favorites here, but $1 mil sounds far more plausible).
• Wolcott will begin serving her sentence on Feb. 1.
 The Post interviewed Kyle Strait, her ex-husband (who Suburbarazzi also talked to a year ago). We’ll let him have the last word on this subject …
“Jessica has a lot of problems. Anybody can look at the things she’s done in the past and see she needs psychiatric help . . . She’s volatile, and this isn’t going to help. While she’s sitting in a cell, she’s not going to get the help she needs. I was kind of pulling for her. She needs to be doing normal-people things. She needs be in school. Her mind is going to spin out of control.”

She deserved every dime that cheating hubby gave her.
Huh? Are you talking about the money she stole from her ex-husband, Kyle Strait, while he was serving in Iraq? Or the Pepsi exec who she swindled $30k from?
If stracin (ex-husband of our favorite sexstortionist) is out there, Prosper.com shut down their forums under high censorship. The whole gang is now hanging out in the prospers.org.
The link on my name is the link to the current thread.
See you soon.
She also probably stole money using her mother's ID on Prosper.com after her own loan did not fund 6 times. See Expunged Prosper Forum Archive and story of Jessica on Prosper.
