Byron Moreno

Byron Aldemar Moreno Ruales (born 23 November 1969) is an Ecuadorian former football referee and convicted drug smuggler.
Refereeing career.
During the 2002 FIFA World Cup Moreno refereed the round of 16 match between Italy and co-hosts South Korea on 18 June; following Italy's elimination from the tournament after a 2–1 extra-time loss, Moreno's performance was criticised for several decisions: he awarded South Korea a controversial penalty in the first half (which was saved by Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, however), and later disallowed what would have been a golden goal by Damiano Tommasi for offside, as well as showing a second yellow card to Francesco Totti for a dive in South Korea's penalty area in extra-time while he was 40 yards away from the play.
In September 2002, while a candidate in October elections for places on the Quito city council, Moreno was suspended for twenty matches and investigated by Ecuadorian football authorities. This came after he made timekeeping errors in a match he officiated between Liga Deportiva Universitaria de Quito and Barcelona Sporting Club. FIFA also investigated him due to controversies "...in Japan, Italy and South America over the past few months". 
In May 2003, in his third game back from his suspension, Moreno was again suspended, for one match, after he sent off three players from visiting Deportivo Quito in a 1–1 draw at Deportivo Cuenca. He retired the following month, blaming low performance marks for his retirement.
Legal trouble.
Moreno was arrested on 21 September 2010 at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, while trying to smuggle in six kilograms (over thirteen pounds) of heroin, which was hidden in his underwear. In January 2011, he pleaded guilty to the charges in a New York courthouse, facing a possible ten years in prison. On 23 September 2011, Moreno was sentenced to two and a half years in prison on the heroin smuggling charges.
He was released from prison 26 months later and returned to Ecuador.
