"I never abused my position," she said. "I never abused my office."

Whew! The one thing she was honest about.

Monkeys do fly.

We’ll see about that....

Not good, but at least it doesn’t sound like she rooked the taxpayers, and she did resign.

Charlie Rangel (the opponent of Espaillat), on the other hand, ran in Harlem with ads depicting him as the “Original Gangsta,” has made a fortune and built an empire on corruption and still continues to rake it in...and has no intention of resigning or even saying he’s sorry.

I hope to live long enough to see him wearing an orange jumpsuit.

so it has to repay all the illegal salary and benefits it's been paid then... right? no??? filthy RAT

Assemblywoman Gabriela Rosa, 47, told U.S. District Judge Denise Cote that she "falsely got married" to a U.S. citizen and referred to it as a real marriage when she became a citizen in 2005.

If you have any kind of an IQ it seems that it's tough to be caught in a sham marriage.If you're called in by the INS you just rehearse answers like what side of the bed he/she sleeps on.I've read that that's the kind of thing they ask you.

Rosa's plea deal for a lighter sentence was predicated on her resignation and admitting to her crimes. But if she held anything back, the plea deal is kaput.

This lowlife demurely hung her head in "shame" before the cameras---reading off the criminal charges that will put her in jail. But to the astute observer, she is hiding plenty. The FBI needs to uncover:

<><><>the number of identities she is using;

<><><> the number of US govt checks Rosa, her family, and staff are cashing;

<><><> whether she ever been labled a ntl security threat;

<><><> the list of her memberships in violent latino groups advocating the overthrow of the US govt

<><> How many stolen Social Security numbers are the Rosa family, staff and political entourage using?

<><><> How many identities are the Rosa family and campaign entourage using?

<><><> Is Rosa, her family, supporters, and political entourage paid agents of foreign governments?

WHO IS GIVING HER MARCHING ORDERS? The FBI needs to subpoena her phone records, emails and snail mail .....

<><> Examine her campaign contributors, foreign travel, wire transfers, etc.

<><> Did Rosa employ illegals as staff w/ tax dollars?

============================================

NY POST EXCERPT---Her head hanging in shame, Gabriela Rosa, 47, who was elected in 2012, admitted to:

<><> filing bogus falsified documents to the federal government in which she lied about her first marriage to obtain citizenship.

<><> bribing a US citizen w/ $8000 to engage in the fraudulent nuptials while she maintained a romantic relationship with another man. She is currently married to latino Victor Estrella and has a 14-year-old son.

<><> committing the fraud between 1996 and December 2005, when she became a US citizen.“I married the person, and it was not a real marriage,” she told Judge Denise Cote.

<><> Rosa also pleaded guilty to making false statements in a 2009 personal-bankruptcy filing. She failed to include her husband’s earning and omitted her ownership of a co-op apartment.

<><> Rosa, who once worked as a legislative aide to Assemblyman Herman “Denny” Farrell, also failed to list outside income she earned as a political consultant.

NOTE Her resignation was part of the plea and she is banned from ever again seeking office in the US. The feds said that despite the fraud, they now consider Rosa a US citizen and will not deport her back to her native Dominican Republic.

In her official biography----which was scrubbed from the Assembly Web site within minutes of her plea----Rosa lied and had boasted of becoming a US citizen. “In 2005, Gabriela became a proud United States citizen, allowing her to deepen her involvement in government and civics by running for office and opening the door for her to further improve the lives of her neighbors in northern Manhattan,” the bio stated.
