MINNEAPOLIS — Defend
ants in the Sister Kenney Foun
dation mail fraud case have five
days in which to file notice of ap
peal of their sentences which
ranged up to 10 years and $17,000
: in fines.
In sentencing the defendants
Friday, U. S. District Judge Ed
I ward J. Dcvitt castigated them as
“greedy, avaricious, unscrupulous
i conspirators. He told them they’d
stolen “dimes and dollars donated
with sacrifice by so many for
their own selfish purposes.”
l Stiffest terms of 10 years in
prison and $17,000 each in fines
were levied against Abraham L.
Koolish, 71, and his son, David,
i 43, who operated a Chicago fund
i raising organization and had the
j Kenney account.
A 10-year term also was im
posed on Marvin L. Kline, 60, for
i mer executive director of the foun
dation and Minneapolis mayor in
! the early 1940s. That term is to
j run concurrently with a10-year
sentence he received earlier for
fraudulently having his salary
raised by $23,000.
John B. Carnell, 59, Chicago,
associate of the Koolishes, got a
five-year term, and former Ken
! eny publicist, Fred Fadell, was
I sentenced to a year and a day in
prison. Fadell pleaded guilty.
J. George Zimmema, St. Paul,
former accountant for the Founda
tion, was placed on probation for
five years.
Government attorneys charged
that some $20 million was raised
( through solicitation for the Foun
dation during the 1950s, but that
only about $9 million went to the
Kenney Institute here, which has
battled polio and other crippling
diseases.
The Foundation has been re
organized since the scandal and
only lately reported it was run
ning in the black again.
