Federal appeals court sets aside former San Antonio oilman Brian Alfaro’s prison sentence
A panel of three federal appellate judges on Thursday set aside former San Antonio businessman Brian Alfaro’s 121-month prison sentence. A San Antonio federal court will have to resentence him.A federal appeals court has set aside former San Antonio oilman Brian Alfaro’s 121-month prison sentence for his conviction on an oil-and-gas scheme that defrauded investors.
“If the district court had accepted the government’s concession, Alfaro’s guidelines range would have been 97 months to 121 months, not the 121-month to 151-month range adopted by the district court,” the appeals court stated. Alfaro, 53, did not seek to overturn his conviction when he appealed his sentence last year. A jury found him guilty on seven counts of mail fraud after an eight-day trial in February 2020.
Michael McCrum, Alfaro’s criminal defense lawyer, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Friday.
