Ex-Bayern Chief Begins Three-and-a-Half Year Prison Term: Gambled on Markets

The former Bayern FC boos Uli Hoeness began serving his three-and-a-half year prison sentence for evading $28.5 million euros in taxes. The 62-year-old will serve time at a prison in Landsberg am Lech effective Monday (June 2).

Hoeness admitted to the tax evasion charges back in March. He was originally facing a sentence of between five and ten years.

"I'm glad that this is all out in the open now," Hoeness said in March. "I deeply regret my wrongdoing. I'm doing everything I can to put this unhappy chapter behind me."
