A Queens judge sentenced a cunning private eye to 32 years in prison Wednesday, calling him a "diabolical conniver and sinister manipulator" who framed his ex-girlfriend for robbery after she accused him of rape.
Supreme Court Justice Richard Buchter
tore into
Jerry Ramrattan
for trying to bolster his plea for mercy by bragging about the help he had given law enforcement agencies as a confidential informant.
"Think about all the cases I made over the years, the rape victims I assisted," Ramrattan said.
"The defendant is an architect of his own ruin," Buchter replied. "He deserves no mercy from me and he won't get any."

All investigators had to do was look at the website Ramrattan kept for his business Most Wanted Inc. where he promised that he could "fix anything, any time," the judge noted.
"Is it really surprising that he would try to fix his own case?†Buchter wondered. "You didn't have to be
