Former GOP director put on probation

A federal Tuesday sentenced former Virginia Republican Party Director Edmund A. Matricardi to three years probation and a $5,000 fine for eavesdropping on a conference call between Democrats.

Matricardi pleaded guilty to the charges in April, and Tuesday he apologized to Governor Warner, Democrats, the people of Virginia and the Republican Party.
