Fife Symington

Fife Symington was the governor of Arizona from 1991 to 1997. He was from the Republican Party. Symington was convicted of Bank fraud (to the tune of several million dollars during the savings and loan scandals, and involved with the Keating 5) and forced from office. He was pardoned by Clinton, and served very little or no jail-time. None of his inherited trust-funds were impacted by any resitution judgements. He is currently a pastry chef in Phoenix, Arizona.

Symington's wife is owner of the Ritz Carlton Hotel at the high-scale Biltmore Fashion Square area of Phoenix. It is suspected Symington himself bought the ownership and put it under his wife's name, so that he would not lose it during the impeachment trial.
