Former Queens Assemblyman Anthony Seminerio faces 14 years in prison after pleading guilty to taking secret payments from Jamaica Hospital officials.
In a booming voice, the tough-on-crime Democrat put the finishing touches on a 30-year legislative career with three words: "Guilty, your honor."
"I knew that my conduct was illegal and wrong, your honor," Seminerio told Manhattan Federal Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald on Wednesday.
Seminerio, 74, resigned his seat representing Queens' 38th District Tuesday. |
