High-flying Fort Lauderdale attorney Scott Rothstein will plead guilty to charges arising from his alleged $1.2 billion Ponzi scheme in late January, the AP is reporting.
Rothstein, who had in early December plead not guilty, hasn't exactly been lying low since his alleged scheme fell apart last November. A local newspaper got footage of Rothstein enjoying a lunchtime martini at the Capital Grille in Fort Lauderdale in mid-November.
