What happened
Roy provided testimony against Konstantinos Diamantis in a legal case involving federal prosecutor Jonathan Francis.

Both the U.S. Attorney’s office and defense lawyer Craig Raabe are urging the court to impose a less custodial sentence on Roy.

Why it matters
The case involved Diamantis, a school construction boss, who was convicted on charges including extortion and bribery. Prosecutors noted that Roy’s cooperation and testimony were critical because there was limited documentary evidence of Diamantis attempting to extort payoffs from Roy and Construction Advocacy Professionals.
