Liberals FURIOUS After Finding Out Who Was Just Sentenced To PRISON
Former President Of Labor Union Sentenced For Embezzlement, False Filings, And Kickback Schemes
Geoffrey S. Berman, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, announced that ROCCO FAZZOLARI, who previously served as the president of a labor union (the “Union”) and a trustee of the Union’s employee welfare benefit plan (the “Plan”), was sentenced today to 37 months in prison for embezzling from the Union and the Plan, concealing this embezzlement through false filings with the U.S. Department of Labor, and for participating in a kickback scheme.
Through these embezzlement and kickback schemes, FAZZOLARI and a co-conspirator illegally obtained a total of more than $1.3 million from the Union and the Plan. FAZZOLARI previously pled guilty before United States District Judge Analisa Torres, who imposed today’s sentence.
U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman said: “Rocco Fazzolari abused his position as the president of a labor union, taking more than $1 million through embezzlement and kickback schemes. Most of this money was taken from an employee benefit plan, which was established to provide medical care for union members. For his crimes, he is now headed to federal prison.”
