Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert has been ordered to never be alone with a person under 18 unless another adult is present who knows of his conviction. A federal judge has ruled so on Tuesday, Dec. 12, The New York Post reported.

Hastert,75, was sentenced to 15 months in prison in April 2016 and since July this year has been on a two-year supervised release all for dodging bank reporting of cash withdrawals and lying to FBI.
