Brooklyn, NY – The once sterling reputation of Charles “Joe” Hynes has been tarnished with accusations that threaten the legacy of a man New York City turned to at the height of racial unrest more than two decades ago.

Then-Gov. Mario Cuomo (KWOH’-moh) appointed Hynes as the special prosecutor in the 1980s to investigate a notorious racial attack in Howard Beach, Queens. Hynes went on to serve six terms as Brooklyn’s district attorney.
Now, federal and state authorities are investigating allegations that Hynes funneled more than $200,000 in forfeiture money from drug and other criminal probes into his doomed re-election campaign. The city’s Department of Investigation says the alleged misuse of funds could amount to larceny.
A lawyer for the 79-year-old Hynes says his client stands by his record and denies any wrongdoing.
Yes Charley boy .Governor spitzer at least had a good time ,
He way over did it to others , he should feel the taste
Finnally he will go to jail & will feel what other innocent people feeling
(103 years for a first time crime is unheard & was never like that in the past, rabbi weberman also have small kids & a wife crying daily for there return)

He simply ran out of luck, and will hopefully get a taste of what his many victims suffered. Hopefully the current DA will keep his honor and thirst for power in check.
Alterg, Weberman is not innocent even he is freed. I know it is hard for you to accept, but there are more victims! and they are zeides and babbes fin inzire. I have rachmonos on his wife and children because they are victims too. However, I do have comfort knowing that he cannot victimize more now…
just the tip of the iceberg,,,,,,,,,,
What does his ex Jewish liaison have to say about all of this?
