NY Democrat Allegedly Falsified $67,000 In Travel Expenses
The Mental Recession ^ | 02/04/2013

New York State Assemblyman William F. Boyland, Jr., already under federal indictment for bribery, now stands accused of falsifying more than $67,000 in travel expenses over a five year period. According to the Times Union, Boyland filed false claims on 609 out of the 975 days that he requested travel reimbursements during that time span.

The State Comptroller’s Office has declined to make the report public, and Albany County District Attorney David Soares, a Democrat, has still failed to take action against Boyland, despite specific requests from colleagues in the Assembly.

Via the New York Post:

Embattled state Assemblyman William Boyland Jr., already the target of a federal corruption prosecution, allegedly falsified documents to reel in more than $67,000 in phony travel reimbursements, according to a bombshell report.

The state Comptroller’s Office concluded that Boyland, who will go on trial to face federal bribery charges this year, lied about being in Albany on more than 600 claims to collect lodging, food and mileage reimbursements.

“You represented on travel vouchers that you were in Albany for 323 days where the evidence shows that you were, in fact, in locations far from Albany,” the report states, according to the Albany Times Union, which obtained a copy.

Boyland’s bribery trial is scheduled for July, in which he stands accused of trying to collect $250,000 in bribes from undercover FBI agents.

State Assemblyman Steve McLaughlin posted this on his Facebook page:

I wonder if the leftist worldview tends to give these folks the idea that since they support “the little guy”, “equality”, and “the common good”, they therefore receive some kind of indulgence and are entitled to commit criminal activities.

So, what does it matter now? And, who cares? He’s a Democrat. No one cares except a few conservatives clinging to their guns and religion living paranoid lives in bunkers. Really.
