U.S. District Federal Judge Reggie Walton immediately had Albert Majkowski hauled out of court in handcuffs after a jury on Tuesday found the Crafton man guilty of stealing millions from investors through a series of lies.

Evidence was presented that he held himself out to be a successful businessman seeking money for various high-tech start-up companies, then used the funds for college tuition for his children and another $30,000 on a recreational vehicle and other things for himself.

“The evidence was overwhelming that he made false representations,” the judge said. “I don’t have any faith that he will be honorable enough to appear.” so he is being held without bond until sentencing on May 25th.
