Sports memorabilia king Bill Mastro expected to plead guilty to fraud in Chicago federal court this morning

NYDN Sports I-Team ‏@NYDNSportsITeam 4m
Judge rejected Mastro plea deal when disgraced auctioneer appeared in court on February, told prosecutor to file papers explaining agreement

Plea deal calls for Mastro to serve no more than 30 months in prison. Feds hope it deters future fraud in the hobby.

If judge OKs plea deal, Mastro will have to acknowledge he engaged in shill bidding, trimmed Gretzky T206 Honus Wagner card

Best,

Sports memorabilia king Bill Mastro just arrived in Chicago federal court, didn't bring a priest this time around.

Mastro, expected to plead guilty to fraud, doesn't look as terrified as he did at Feb. hearing. He seems more relaxed this time around.

The priest actually looks more nervous than Mastro. #fraud

Here we go again: Judge rejects Mastro plea deal, says he doesn't want to be locked into proposed 30 months or less prison sentence.
