A former big-money lender who had ties to the political corruption scandal that upended the careers of two former Utah attorneys general has lost another battle with the state's parole board.
In July, Marc Sessions Jenson sought relief from nearly half the $4.1 million in restitution the board says he owes the victims of a 2005 criminal case, insisting there were new documents to show that a portion of the debt had been settled through other lawsuits.
On Oct. 6, the board rejected Jenson's petition and denied his request for a hearing on the issue, documents from the Utah Board of Pardons and Parole show.
