'Manhattan Madam' Kristin Davis gets 2 years for selling pills

NEW YORK (WABC) -- "Manhattan Madam" Kristin Davis was sentenced to prison time Wednesday morning in federal court in lower Manhattan.

Although she appealed to the judge for leniency and requested probation, the argument was soundly rejected.

Davis pleaded guilty earlier this year to selling prescription pills. She faced five years in prison.

Her attorney has said Davis has a new career in cosmetology.
