NY politician Victor Tabone claimed he was too drunk to recognize that the briefcase filled with $20,000 he accepted in the back of an SUV was a bribe. He stated that the 6 or 7 vodka tonics he had at dinner made him think that the bribe was actually a contract to hire him as a political consultant.
As part of an undercover FBI sting operation, Tabone was one of 3 other politicians caught in the bribery scheme.
He should be prosecuted & removed from office for accepting a bribe.
Corrupt.
BET HE WASN’T TOO DRUNK TO SPEND THE MONEY??? HE SHOULD HAVE ASKED FOR HOOKERS TOO! REALLY MADE THEIR DAY OR TO GO ON THE NEXT TRIP THEY TAKE TO VEGAS ON “WE DA SHEEPLE’S” DIME FOR A WEEK LONG “VACATION/SEMINAR”!!! PROBABLY CALLED “RIPPIN-US-A-NEW-ONE” 101!!! CAPISCHE???
“Sorry I slaughtered your family” “I was too drunk to recognize” …..that defense isn’t gonna fly and if it does someone else took a bribe
Right.
Unfit for his job learning how to lie
ANOTHER BAREFACED LIIAAAAAR
Oh, come on! We the People aren’t that stupid!
Modern day political crook. Fat SOB looks like a spoiled brat.
Too drunk to know a bribe…. that sums up two things:
1. politics in action
2. how naive they think we are.
