Ringleader in maple syrup heist gets 8 years in prison, $9.4M fine

[Twila]

Can it get any more Canadian then this:


A man described as one of the ringleaders in the 2012 theft of $18.7 million worth of maple syrup has been sentenced to eight years in prison, but that term could be extended if he can't pay his multimillion-dollar fine.

On Friday, a Trois-Rivières, Que., judge handed Richard Vallières his eight-year sentence and fined him nearly $9.4 million.

If Vallières does not pay the fine, he will have to spend an additional six years behind bars.

Maple syrup theft is a sticky business in this country.

No waffling on this file. The Crown tapped the finest legal minds in the land.

Tree is a tree. A's long as it has a high enough dollar value it can hit the ground.
