Politicians - Former Brooklyn Democratic boss Clarence Norman
There seems to be an endless supply of politicians like this...
In the New York Daily News, Scott Shifrel reports, "Norman's guilty, guilty, guilty":
"Former Brooklyn Democratic boss Clarence Norman has now been convicted three times in four trials:
"Sept. 27, 2005: Convicted of soliciting a campaign contribution in excess of the legal limit. Gives up his Assembly seat, his party post and his law license."
"Dec. 15, 2005: Convicted of pocketing a $5,000 check made out to his campaign committee."
