The Verdict

So the punishments are in, and they are not pretty:

Juventus: Stripped of '05 and '06 scudetto championships; relegated to Serie B and deducted 30 points; removed from Champions League.

Fiorentina: Relegated to Serie B and deducted 12 points; removed from Champions League.

Lazio: Relegated to Serie B and deducted 7 points.

AC Milan: Stay in Serie A, but deducted 15 points; removed from Champions League.

So, there will be fallout to come, such as what to do with the past two Scudettos, how UEFA will fill the open Champions League slots, which players will be sold and to whom, and who will fill the new Italian vacuum of power. It is a very ugly time for the game, though. Help us, Ronaldinho, you're our only hope.
