On Oct. 2, Brian Ray Dinning, who received his law degree in 1990 from Regent University and practiced law in Hampton Roads for a number of years, was given a prison sentence in U.S. District Court in Norfolk of 12 years and 6 months.
The sentence surpassed advisory guidelines and also the recommendation of prosecutors, who had asked for at least seven years and three months for Dinning, who ran a Ponzi scheme that bilked about three dozen investors of more than $2.27 million.
