Raffaello Follieri and Anne Hathaway

Raffaello Follieri was sentenced four and half years imprisonment after he was proved guilty of 14 counts of wire fraud, money laundering and other conspiracy. He appealed for a bail, which was denied by the court on Thursday.

Raffaello Follieri is Anne Hathaway’s former boyfriend. He is condemned for cheating millions of dollars of
investors to whom he had earlier claimed to have Vatican connections that enabled him to buy Roman Catholic Church property at a discount. Raffaello Follieri, who is 30 now, have admitted, “ I dishonored my family name and embarrassed the church I love. I’ll never be able to wash away that stain, and I will have to live with it the rest of my life”, as reported by an Italian newspaper. He also added, “ I just hope someday those who have been hurt by my actions can forgive me”.

Follieri has claimed that he did not start off with bad intentions, rather he was determined to run an honorable business. “Instead, I made some terrible mistakes”, he added. “I always thought I could repair the wrongdoing, but I was wrong”.

Anne Hathaway and Raffaello Follieri were going around for four years. They decided to split in June just before his arrest.
