Child-welfare worker clocked at 142 mph on motorcycle

The Associated Press

ORANGEBURG, N.Y. - A child-welfare worker was clocked at 142 miles an hour on his motorcycle while leading police on a two-state chase, authorities said Thursday.

Sean Virgo's wild ride allegedly started in Orangeburg, where he was pursued by New York state police.

When he arrived in neighboring New Jersey, Palisades Interstate Parkway police picked up the chase, They arrested Virgo as he tried to make a U-turn on a grassy median.

Virgo, 34, of Ossining, an emergency children's services investigator for the New York City Administration for Children's Services, was charged this week with eluding police and first-degree reckless endangerment.

He was being held on $20,000 bail in the Bergen County jail in New Jersey.

What the heck does his job title have to do with anything? Makes one wonder if the annonymous AP reporter had a child abuse case against him/her.

I can see the relevance of the man's job if he was a:

1) cop
2) traffic court judge
3) judge
4) car thief
5) illegal immigrant
6) unemployed
7) President of GEICO, AIG or other auto insurance agency

Bergen County Jail. Vivid memories. It's like a travelers bed and breakfast with ugly people.
