Crundwell is sentenced to 19 years, 7 months

ROCKFORD — Rita Crundwell will be at least 77 years old when she walks out of prison.

Dixon’s disgraced former comptroller was led away in handcuffs Thursday, just minutes after a federal judge sentenced her to 19 years, 7 months, for wire fraud.

The 60 year old must serve 85 percent, or 16 and one-half years of the sentence. When she is freed, she will be subject to three years of federal supervision.
