AKRON, Ohio - An Akron priest was sentenced to one day in prison on Wednesday, after pleading guilty to tax-related charges.
Samuel Ciccolini, 66, pleaded guilty to structuring financial transactions to evade reporting requirements and making and subscribing a false tax return. Ciccolini must pay $3.5 million is restitution.

Ciccolini was also sentenced to pay $350,000 in fines and will be on three years of supervised released.
Ciccolini, a Roman Catholic priest, is the founder of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center called the Interval Brotherhood. In July, he took a voluntary leave of absence from his role as executive director of the facility.
