The brother of the former chief financial officer of the bankrupt hedge fund firm Bayou Group LLC has been sentenced to 21 months in federal prison of his role in concealing a $400 million fraud.

Matthew Marino, brother of Daniel Marino, was also ordered to pay $60 million in restitution.

Prosecutors say that Marino knew about the fraud on the investors in the now-collapsed Bayou Hedge Funds and took steps to conceal it. His brother is serving 20 years for the scheme as is Bayou co-founder Samuel Israel.
