The following e-mail came from the Santa Barbara DA today:
Today around 2:30pm, Orson Mozes plead "guilty" to 17 counts of violating Penal Code section 532(a), felony obtaining money by false pretenses. He also admitted the truth of the special allegation charged under Penal Code section 186.11(a)(2), aggravated white collar crime taking over $500,000.
On July 14, 2009 at 1:30pm in department #12, he will be sentenced to 3 years and 4 months in State Prison .
I don't want to post personal details of the restitution because that is the victims' personal information, but I will say that as far as we are concerned, Orson must pay us back for our loss and the court has the assets available to distribute the restitution to his victims. This was a great relief since it was unknown if any monies would be available for restitution.
I feel SO INCREDIBLY grateful to Laura Cleaves, Norma Hansen, and Paula Waldman for taking the pain and suffering of all of Orson's victims seriously and for seeking justice. This is a true victory. Nothing will EVER take away the pain and heartache we endured and we will NEVER stop loving and missing our boys.

Wow. After all that.. it's hard to believe.
I know the loss of your sons will always be real, but I hope that Orson's imprisonment brings you some kind of peace, some closure, maybe?
Wishing you and Joe the best!
Oh what fabulous news!! I hope this brings you and other families who were victimized by him some semblance of peace.
That's great news. I know that you guys played a huge part in making this right for a lot of families.
