"Mr. Price hopes that others will learn from his reckoning that there is no easy money," Price's lawyer Tom Berg said in an email to news outlets. "He has the balance of the 110-month sentence to reflect, repent and rebuild his misspent life."
Prosecutors accused Price of fraudulently using more than US$1.6 million in funding from the Paycheck Protection Program, which gave low-interest loans to small businesses struggling during the pandemic.
According to prosecutors, Price also used the money to buy an $85,000 pickup truck and to pay off a loan on a residential property.
