When Judge Ellen K. Raedy sen tenced Orsie a total of 60 days on the charges, the mother burst into tears. She said she and her hus band had come "all the way from our home in Connecticut when we heard Roger was in trouble." "We will do our best to make the money good," she sobbed. "Please don't let him go to jail." Judge Raedy demurred, however. "I feel deeply sorry for you and your husband. You're the ones who are paying for this no matter what happens.
