Duluth, MN (Norhtland's NewsCenter) --- Failed auto dealer, Denny Hecker has been moved from a minimum security prison in Duluth to a medium security prison in Oxford, WI near Madison.

According to the Star Tribune, Hecker was serving a 10 year sentence at a federal prison camp and was originally relocated to the Duluth Federal Prison Camp because he was considered a possible flight risk or a person who wasn't obeying phone rules.

Denny Hecker was once Minnesota's largest auto dealer. He was sentenced last year for bankruptcy fraud and for defrauding auto lenders out of hundreds of millions of dollars.
