Closing another chapter in a long federal probe, a former chairman and CEO of the then-Kellogg Brown & Root Inc. has been sentenced to a prison term for his part in what a Justice Dept official termed “a massive bribery scheme” involving $6 billion in contracts for a natural-gas project in Nigeria.
The Justice Dept. said that Albert Jackson “Jack” Stanley was sentenced on Feb. 23 to 30 months in prison. U.S. District Judge Keith P. Ellison also told Stanley to pay $10.8 million in restitution to KBR and serve three years of supervised release after his prison term.
