GERMANO |
Germano’s trial to answer charges
of committing a lewd, lascivious or indecent act, a felony, and the misdemeanor
of solicitation of a prostitute was initially slated for April.
The now 85-year-old was arrested
near his Vero Beach Florida home in November 2012 for allegedly offering a 12-year-old
boy $50 for sex. The youngster, who was waiting at a bus stop not far from his
home, called his mother from a cell phone. When the mom came to the scene,
Germano was still there and he allegedly made her the same offer.
Charges of procuring a person
under the age of 18 years old for sex, a felony, and two counts of misdemeanor
stalking were dropped by the prosecutor. Germano was later re-arrested on the
lewd and lascivious behavior charge. The political boss for three decades remains free on $65,000 bail.

Since this is the fourth time the
trial was rescheduled, it’s likely the two sides have tried to come to some
sort of plea deal. Germano is 85 years old, after all, and there isn’t even a
hint of sexually abusing minors in his history. He’s made some enemies, too, so
even a whisper of such a thing would have quickly turned into a shout.
But, to say Germano’s unique charm
is an acquired taste is an understatement so my guess is Florida authorities are
having a tough time warming up to the man who could have starred in the
Sopranos.
Here’s a link to some history behind one of the most colorful politicians to every come out of the Capital Region.

ReplyDeleteHe's gross.that's all.
ReplyDeleteHow about a story on why the Tutunjians refused to pay their taxes and are subject to a tax lien? Since they both have county tit jobs thanks to Jimino, which means WE pay their salary, shouldn't we get an explanation? I would also like an explanation from Jimino herself. Why do tax scofflaws get patronage jobs paid for by actual taxpayers? There should be a law against this.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot more relevant than some trial down in Florida.
Maybe they want to run up a couple of hundred thousand dollar bill like your friend bragnolia.
DeleteAMEN.
DeleteI agree with this! The county legislature should prohibit this. Why aren't they doing anything? If people who owe taxes can't buy city property, why are they allowed to get county taxpayer jobs??
DeleteWhat''s the deal with the moderation on this blog, Franco. You can post crap from disgraced former councilman Kevin McGrath to help him run again but no one is allowed to point out that his criminal history prevents him from holding office??
ReplyDeleteFelix will enjoy showering with killers. They'll enjoy having him. Convicts love chicken hawks...especially racist ones. He used to be a correction officer and was given the gate for expressing beliefs. Ironic, ain't it? This is the karma bug about to bite. There are a lot of people just waiting to LOVE this, myself included along with CB Smith, Dan Ashley, the Connollys, Mr. Schnebly, DANA, and 7 tenths of North Greenbush. We cannot wait to see what comes of this, even if there is no conviction, just seeing Corleone having his turn in the dock is more than worth it. Cannot wait...Calvin Spaulding
ReplyDeleteAny intelligent well educated person would know that 80 year olds don’t wake up one day and decide to solicit little kids for sex. Clearly there is more to this story and this old guy was set up. From what I hear he has helped a lot of gracious and ungracious people throughout the years. It might have upset some but he knew how to get the job done. So be careful when you mention Karma as it is going to come back and bite you!
DeleteGoing to tan today then ride around with the windows up and dark. I'll come to city hall 20 mins late leave 20 mins early prolly tan again then I'll go watch the fast and the furious.

ReplyDeleteDoes it bother you that much that she turned you down for a date?
DeleteHoney we are all on to you. After all your the texting queen. Just a matter of time before the Feds pull your phone records
DeleteWho are they talking about? Never mind, it could be 3/4 of city hall employees.
DeleteSomeone who got their position in City Hall who doesn't deserve it,she should be doing dumpster work with her cousin
DeleteWhat a sick pathetic man. Bet he gets off and gets a Tatto!
