Black bids to delay start of sentence
Disgraced media mogul Conrad Black’s plea for an emergency delay to the start of his six-and-a-half year jail sentence for fraud should be denied, US prosecutors said today.
Lord Black of Crossharbour was ordered to report to prison by March 3 after a jury found he illegally received $3.5m as they convicted him of three counts of fraud and one of obstruction of justice last year.
