Has anyone ever actually gone to prison under the Sherman Act?
- oldgradstudent 5y agoRarely. > Jail sentences have also traditionally been lenient. For example, from 1890 to 1970, only nineteen individuals actually went to jail for pure antitrust violations for a total of 28 months. Thus, during the first 80 years of the Sherman Act, the average jail sentence was approximately 1.5 months. https://lawecommons.luc.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2020&context=luclj https://lawecommons.luc.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2020...
