After one last unsuccessful attempt at delay, former Washington state Auditor Troy Kelley has begun serving his federal prison sentence.
Kelley reported last week to a minimum security camp at a Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Herlong, California in the high desert about 50 miles northwest of Reno.
Kelley’s “self-surrender,” which was first reported by KING 5 News, caps a years-long saga that began with a federal indictment in 2015 and led to two trials, a conviction on several charges and a lengthy, but ultimately unsuccessful, appeals process.
Until the very end, Kelley – who remained free throughout the legal process sought to postpone the start of his time in prison.
