Bunner was authorized to put cash on Red Cross debit cards, but instead of giving the cards to disaster victims prosecutors say he would cash out the money himself. Bunner was sentenced to 1-10 years in prison, but that was suspended and he was given five years probation and ordered to back all of the money he took. Bunner will go to jail if he misses any monthly restitution payments to the Red Cross.
