Real Housewives of Atlanta's Apollo Nida Sentenced to 8 Years in Prison

Real Housewives of Atlanta's Apollo Nida Sentenced to 8 Years in Prison



Though Apollo originally faced up to 30 years in prison for mail, wire and bank fraud, a Georgia judge granted leniency, lessening his sentence for  SNITCHING cooperating with a federal investigation.

"On behalf of my client Apollo, right now he feels remorse. He thought the judge was fair, and accepts his sentence, although he was hoping it would be less," Nida's lawyer Thomas D. Bever says"Apollo is elated that this proceeding is past him and is no longer handing over his head. It meant everything to him that his mother and brother spoke on his behalf. He's OK, and will get through this."Nida, who appears on the Bravo hit with wife Phaedra Parks, was arrested in January before pleading guilty to the charges in May.
