Four years after their convictions, these 4 Meridian business execs are headed to prison
Four executives of a Meridian property-management company that collapsed in the Great Recession will soon head to prison, four years after they were convicted of fraud.
The U.S. Supreme Court has turned down an appeal from the executives of DBSI. That means DBSI executives Douglas Swenson, Mark Ellison, Jeremy Swenson and David Swenson will begin serving their sentences.
The four men and their attorneys are scheduled to appear at 9 a.m. Tuesday before U.S. Magistrate Candy Dale in Boise. Federal prosecutors want the four men taken into immediate custody. Defense lawyers want them to remain free while the federal Bureau of Prisons prepares to assign them to a particular prison, a process that typically takes several weeks.
