Sandy didn't hold back ... she said while he was still chilling in his big home, others like her were left scrambling to pick up the pieces.
Calvert had taken a plea deal ... but that deal was rejected this week following objections from alleged victims in court.
Calvert is charged with organized scheme to defraud, misapplication of construction funds, and grand theft ... all felonies -- WTLV-TV reports 13 victims suffered an estimated combined loss of $18 million.
Yawn pushed the judge to lock him up for at least 10 years ... blasting the plea deal that would’ve meant 5 years behind bars, $1.47 million in payback ... and what Yawn basically called a slap on the wrist.
Sandy wasn’t alone. She was one of several emotional families testifying against Calvert, who prosecutors say raked in a jaw-dropping $15 million in deposits ... and left homes unfinished.
