Diana J. Stout, a Bethesda woman, was sentenced to two years in prison, three years supervised release and $150,000 in restitution payments for bankruptcy fraud. Stout filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief in April 2010. She failed to disclose assets including an 18-karat white gold bracelet with 75 diamonds, 797 shares of stock and 2 vehicles. She sold these assets, pocketed the money and never disclosed the transfers to her Bankruptcy Trustee.
