JACOB - Linapore's former water polo player has been sentenced to 9 months in prison. Larry Palma pleaded guilty to forgery and misappropriating money from the Linapore Swimming Association between 2003 and 2005. He pleaded guilty on Wednesday. The 44-year-old embezzled more than $60,000 while he was the vice-president of the association's Longman branch. He has since paid back the money. Larry represented Linapore for more than 20 years and was head coach from 2001 until this year.
