Former Ocean County GOP Chairman George Gilmore has been sentenced to one year and one day in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, plus treatment in a mental health program.
The sentence was handed down in federal court in Trenton on Wednesday, Jan. 21, by U.S. District Judge Anne Thompson. She imposed no fines, but Gilmore is prohibited from using credit cards or opening any new bank accounts without approval from the probation office.
