A federal judge on Monday sentenced Patricia Urbanovsky, owner of an Omaha event-planning business, to 63 months in federal prison and ordered her to pay nearly $4.7 million in restitution in connection with the sale of thousands of worthless airline flight vouchers.

At a sentencing and restitution hearing Monday in federal court, U.S. Judge Joseph Bataillon accepted the plea agreement Urbanovsky brokered with federal prosecutors in September. He sentenced her for 16 counts of wire fraud.

Urbanovsky was originally charged with 16 counts of wire fraud and nine counts of money laundering and faced up to 365 years behind bars. Under the plea agreement, she pleaded guilty to only the wire fraud charges.

Urbanovsky sold thousands of worthless flight vouchers through her business, Creative Creations.
