Well Moreno plead guilty to heroin possession and smuggling charges and sentenced to 2 1/2 years (source). This was down from a possible maximum of 10 years, and reduced further as he has apparently been a model prisoner in the federal jail in Brooklyn. One of the mitigating factors in reducing his sentence ... he created a prison soccer league.
A sad fall from grace in my opinion. World Cup referee to prison rec league organizer.
Moreno will be deported back to his native Ecuador following his sentence.
