Your Austin nightclub update for January 25, 2013.

I noted previously that two of the Yassine brothers were convicted of money laundering in the Austin nightclub case. (Previoisly.)

They were sentenced today. Hussein Ali Yassine, aka “Mike”, “founder and president of Yassine Enterprises”, was sentenced to twelve years and seven months in federal prison. Hadi Yassine, his brother, got a five year sentence. Both will also serve three years on probation after they are released.

In addition, “Mike”, Hadi, and their other brother Mohammed Ali (aka “Steve”) are not US citizens, so there is “a chance” that they will be deported after serving their time. (“Steve”, as you may recall, took a plea deal last year and was sentenced to a year in prison.)
