CINCINNATI (AP) – An Ohio man who falsely claimed to be a long-missing Illinois child has been sentenced to serve two years behind bars and one year of probation for aggravated identity theft. Twenty-five-year-old Brian Michael Rini apologized during the video hearing Tuesday before U.S. District Judge Michael Barrett made his sentence official. Barrett told Rini earlier this year he faced a mandatory two-year sentence, but the judge wanted to see the results of a presentencing investigation before entering it. Rini gets credit for time served, so he will be released on probation in less than four months.
