Ex-NYS judge, prosecutor apparently kills himself as FBI arrives to arrest him on corruption charges: report
NY Post ^ | 9/24/24 | Joe Marino, Reuven Fenton, Jorge Fitz-Gibbon

A retired upstate New York county judge and former prosecutor allegedly shot himself to death Tuesday morning as FBI agents moved in to arrest him on corruption charges, according to reports.

Stewart Rosenwasser, who has been embroiled in a sordid federal bribery scandal, allegedly opened fire on the agents as they approached his Orange County home before his death by apparent suicide shortly after 9:30 am, the Albany Times-Union reported Tuesday.

Sources told The Post that an indictment naming Rosenwasser was handed down this week.

The FBI said in a statement that the agency is reviewing the incident at the Campbell Hall home, noting that it is being investigated by the Inspection Division, as is typically the case in agent-involved shootings.

“As this is an ongoing matter, we have no further details to provide,” the statement said.

Rosenwasser was accused of pocketing $63,000 in bribes from Mout’z Soudani, who was the victim in an embezzlement case he prosecuted in 2022, the outlet said.

The feds allege Rosenwasser accepted the bribes to investigate and prosecute two relatives of Soudani who were involved in the $1.9 million embezzlement case — and later pleaded guilty to grand larceny.

The two — nephew Martin Soudani and his sister Eman Soudani — filed a $22.5 million lawsuit to have the convictions overturned, claiming the case was tainted by the bribes.

At least that saves the taxpayers a lot of money. Who knows just how corrupt this integrity-free nitwit was?

He should have said voodoo migrants, because 80% of them practice some form of voodoo.

Must be a democrat. If he had been a Republican, it would have been mentioned in the first sentence.

<>FBI agents arriving at Rosenwasser’s home on Route 416 reported that he was barricaded and that shots were fired, and requested a SWAT team from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.<>

The FIB opening assault on Mar-a-Lago featured dozens of agents that included a Swat Team.

The FBI tagged him because he didn’t share the bribe money with the local FBI criminals.

“...shot himself to death Tuesday morning as FBI agents moved in to arrest him...”

This is the future of Juan Merchan, Lewis Kaplan, Arthur Engoron, Alvin Bragg, Letetia Cannibal James, etc.

Watch for ALL of them to attempt suicide in 2025.

What the heck. The FBI was there to cleanse the crimes and take their cut and get the cut for The Big Guy. He should have known the FIB is there to erase the crimes of the swamp, not enforce laws.

I imagine that all the judges and prosecutors against Donald Trump are being paid millions.

Dude’s old house looks like it had Stasi vehicular surveillance procedures set up on it going back before the incident that they claimed was why they were there for him. He was a target going way back.
