After lengthy legal proceedings, the producer is sentenced to four years in prison and fined $26.4 million. His wife, however, is acquitted. Such have been the real-life ups and downs for Carlo Ponti and Sophia Loren. Since Ponti is now a French citizen, it is highly unlikely that he will ever be sent to jail. As for the fine, he may have to pay a small part...
