LooKing eiatea ana yei disbelieving, Gregory stood with his attorneys after the verdict was read to be sentenced by Circuit Court Judge Carleton Penn, who ordered the fine to be paid within 15 days. Just after court adjourned, Gregory was surrounded by an emotional and congratulatory ^rouj of family and friends and, appearing on the verge of tears, shied away from reporters’ queries.
