The former manager of a Hallandale Beach condo complex was sentenced to 10 years in prison Friday for participating in a kickback scheme that fleeced unit owners out of more than $3 million. Robert Hittner, 65, pleaded guilty on Jan. 2 to three counts of organized fraud in connection with his conduct while he was manager of the Parker Plaza Estates high-rise condominium at 2030 South Ocean Drive in Hallandale Beach.
