10A Sun Sentinel SunSentinel.com SB TATTOO Continued from Page 1A The fading face art is just one manifestation of what Denesevich's lawyer, Omar Guerra Johannson, said is a sincere effort to reform. That effort, along with his cooperation with authorities, earned him years off his prison term. Prosecutors revealed in court that, since he got caught, the 26-year-old Lauderhill man worked undercover for the FBI. He wore a wire and helped agents prosecute six other people who sold more than L200 stolen identities and committed tax fraud, prosecutor Michael Berger told the judge. Denesevich admitted he paid a former Broward Clerk of Courts employee, Porscha Kyles, to steal drivers' identities from a state database in 2011 and 2012.

He also admitted he used that information to file about 80 fraudulent income tax returns and collect $57,238 in refunds. Denesevich, who has nearly a dozen convictions for crimes that include illegal possession of an alligator, robbery, firearm and I drug offenses, fled to Canada in the spring of 2012 after agents tried to interview him about the identity thefts. He vowed to never return to South Florida. Then something happened that made him want to "I came back here for my son. I'm extremely sorry to my victims."

Below is some of the safety equipment used. change: His son was born in August 2012 and Denesevich said he knew it was time to mend his ways and be a good dad. He returned to Broward County, cooperated with the FBI, worked a legitimate job and earned a pilot's license. As they waited outside the courtroom before the sentencing, Denesevich and his now 2-year-old son, whose middle name is "Bentley," like the car and the tattoo, played airplanes, running around with their arms extended like wings and making whooshing noises.

"I came back here for my son," Denesevich told the judge, apologizing for his crimes. "I'm extremely sorry to my victims." Sentencing guidelines suggested a punishment of at least 4A years in federal prison but prosecutors, and FBI agents who came to court to vouch for the value of his undercover work, recommended a punishment of two years and three months in prison. U.S. District Judge William Zloch grilled the prosecution and defense about how useful Denesevich's cooperation was and whether his victims were still experiencing difficulties getting their income tax returns. When Zloch was satisfied, he agreed to give Denesevich extraordinary credit and sentenced him to one year and three months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release.

He must report to prison on Dec. 12 and has to pay $57,328 in restitution with Kyles, who is serving three years for her crimes. After sentencing, Denesevich didn't want to say much about his tattoos or what inspired him to get them, other than to confirm he's a fan of all things Bendey. If he keeps up with the tattoo removal, his face art will someday be a thing of the past. But he'll always have a memento of it tattooed on his back is a portrait of his own face with the Bentley logo.

A Frontier Airlines jet that carried a nurse with the Ebola virus touched down at FLL later that day, after she disembarked. Gov. Rick Scott held a news conference at the Fort Lauderdale airport in the aftermath, criticizing federal authorities for not helping Florida deal with Ebola threats quickly enough.

Federal employees also are watching at tiie international gate in Fort Lauderdale airport for symptomatic patients who've traveled to one of the impacted countries, George said. Wednesday morning, a passenger was flagged because he carried two passports, including a passport from one of the impacted African countries. But it was determined he hadn't traveled there in eight years, airport Director of Operations Mike Nonnemacher said. Outside the airport, Broward's Main Jail and Imperial Point Hospital have had Ebola scares false reports that a person with Ebola exposure was present. Dr.

Nabil el Sanadi, chief medical officer of emergency medicine for the North Broward Hospital District, branded as "Broward Health," said the Imperial Point incident earlier this week was the result of a "silly" miscommunication. A sick patient reported traveling to Syria, el Sanadi said, but the country was misheard as Sierra Leone. bwallmantribune.com or 9S4-3S6-4S41 EBOLA Continued from Page 1A plan, as a potential entry point for an infected person to reach local soil. In addition, international travelers are being monitored. "It's highly unlikely that a situation like that will occur at FLL," Aviation Director Kent George said.

"However, we are prepared. We have prepared for situations like this for years." The virus, transmitted via bodily fluids, has killed more than 4,800 people in the West African countries of Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In the U.S., four cases have been diagnosed, and one patient died. The latest patient, diagnosed Thursday, is a doctor in New York, who'd just returned from Guinea. Internal emails and interviews with top airport officials lay out how a plane landing at FLL with a possible Ebola patient would be handled: The plane would taxi to the gate, and the passenger bridge would be connected.

The aircraft door would remain closed. No luggage or cargo would be removed. Emergency personnel would board the plane and assess the patient, then call the CDC office in Miami. The CDC would decide whether the person should be transported to a hospital either Broward Health Medical Center in downtown Fort Lauderdale or Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood. Passengers within six feet of the patient, about two seat rows, would be asked to fill out forms with their contact information, to be given to federal officials.

Passengers seated farther away would be allowed to leave. Only under extreme circumstances would all the jet passengers be quarantined for up to 72 hours. The aircraft would be towed to a hangar that's been modified in the past several weeks, with bathrooms, electricity and seating, George said. An internal airport memo written after a meeting with CDC officials says, "CDC was very clear that they want to avoid a quarantine, however CDC did advise that the airport should have a contingency plan for on-site facilities for housing passengers for up to 72 hours, which would only be required in a very extreme case." The airplane would have to be cleaned, but that would be "the responsibility of the airline," the memo says. But airport spokesman Greg Meyer said airlines hire professionals for the work.

"It's not like a flight attendant is doing it," he said. For the remainder of the passengers and the crew, hand sanitizer would be offered. "Hand sanitizer has been identified as an effective method of mitigation," the internal memo says. Like communities across the state, country and world, Broward County is preparing for the worst Already, Fort Lau-derdale-Hollywood International had an incident that set emergency personnel into JIM RASSOL STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER Gov.

A large one from Wings Plus a must-stop locale for any Republican politician campaigning through Broward proclaimed, "Coral Springs Welcomes Rick Scott" Conventional wisdom for several election cycles has been that the Republican Party has trouble attracting voters outside of its white, male base, but the diverse the day before, Scott told the crowd that simply voting is not enough "Elections are won by talking to people, by having that conversation," he said. "Encourage your friends and neighbors to vote as well." And just as Crist drew distinctions between himself and Scott by citing support for equal pay for women and raising the minimum wage, Scott pointed out some differences as well. "Under Crist, we lost 832,000 jobs, 1.1 million homes foreclosed on, raised tuition on all our students who want to go to college or university, and cuts in education," he said. "What did he do that was good for us? Well, he didn't run for re-election" Supporters included Republican officials such as former U.S. Sen.

George Le-Mieux and current State Sen Rene Garcia Both praised Scott as more of a "people's governor" than Crist, despite Crist's adoption of that tide. "Scott wears his heart on his sleeve," Garcia said. "Nobody in Tallahassee or convicted of conspiracy to murder. Woodside and three other men were clad in white T-shirts emblazoned with "Republicans are not Racist" in black marker. He is now a conservative who goes by Michael the Black Man.
