BRIDGEPORT - A Stratford man is facing a year in prison after he pleaded guilty Friday to defrauding the Small Business Administration on a Superstorm Sandy loan. Petar Mladen, 61, stood shaking his head before Superior Court Judge Robert Devlin as the prosecutor, Howard Stein, recited the facts of the case but then agreed to plead guilty under the Alford Doctrine to first-degree larceny and second-degree forgery. A plea made under the Alford Doctrine mean the defendant doesn’t admit his guilt but concedes he could be found guilty of the crime if he went to trial. The judge then finds him guilty.
