Ed Mangano meet Wikipedia Crickets

Post by wexter » Thu Apr 14, 2022 10:11 pm

Wikipedia did not catch the latest news on the sentencing of two bit politico Ed Mangano
I guess he is of little interest to the wiki-idiots.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Thursday, April 14, 2022
Statement of U.S. Attorney Breon Peace on Sentencing of Edward and Linda Mangano
“In the federal courthouse behind me, a short time ago, former Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano was sentenced by the Court to 12 years in prison, and his wife, Linda Mangano, to 15 months in prison.

Nearly two years ago, a federal jury found Edward Mangano guilty of conspiracy to obstruct justice and multiple counts of taking bribes and kickbacks from a businessman in exchange for pressuring local officials to guarantee the businessman’s loans. Linda Mangano was found guilty of obstructing the investigation by lying to the FBI about getting a lucrative “no show” job from that businessman, which was a bribe to her husband.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Mangano

Edward P. Mangano (born March 24, 1962) is an American politician from the state of New York. A Republican, he was the Nassau County Executive from January 2010 to December 2017, and a former legislator in Nassau County, New York. He was elected in 1995 and served seven terms as a county legislator.[1] In November 2009, he defeated incumbent Thomas R. Suozzi for Nassau County Executive. In November 2013, he was re-elected, again defeating Suozzi, by 59% to 41%.[2]

In October 2016, a 13-count federal indictment for fraud and bribery was unsealed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against Mangano, his wife Linda, and Oyster Bay Town Supervisor John Venditto.[3] He did not seek reelection in 2017.[4] He and his wife were both convicted in March 2019, and are both facing up to 20 years in prison.[5] In January 2021, a federal judge delayed a hearing into whether the convictions should be overturned due to a defense claim that a key government witness in the trial committed perjury.[6]

Someone tried to insert sentencing of Mangano into the second paragraph and got smacked down (by "Glane") on the basis fact was not attributed with a reference. It looks like a change to fact lasted a whole ONE MINUTE!

Bribery charges
On October 20, 2016, Mangano and his wife were arrested on corruption..............

On April 14th, 2022, Mangano was sentenced to 12 years in prison, while his wife was sentenced to 15 months.


He could have just added a reference; but that would de-fang this loser

I sort of knew that "Ed Mangano" would be a "honeypot" for a wiki-iditot

a) wasting your time

b) he begged for adminship in 2011 and was rejected. He was criticized for being just another Huggle-grinding patroller, for "lack of knowledge of policy", and for placing "cool-down blocks", which typically have the opposite effect...as they DAMN WELL KNOW. Since then Geoff has begged for, and gotten, all the minor sub-admin gold stars. No doubt he will beg his way back to RFA again, and this time he will probably get it, because they love patrollers. No matter how INCOMPETENT. Also: a substantial number of the people who voted Support have since been banned, desysopped, or left for other reasons. Won't matter. Plus, Geoff watches RC for edits made by IP addresses, and reverts them very quickly and sloppily. Because he knows the insiders like that kind of thing, because IPs are "up to no good" and such crap.

c) Would you like me to tell you about HJ Mitchell, his primary opponent? Let me say this.

I am not editing anything on Wikipedia!
I have trolled them for a bit over the years.

I am just observing the nonsense on Wikipedia and musing about it. Lurking without participating in the Kool-aid.

Frankly I enjoy watching the train-wreck in action.

This blog provides insight into how terrible Wikipedia is.

In this case, Even a Federal conviction for bribery and corruption covered in the news (including the New York times) cannot find its way into Wikipedia and the wiki-idiots that run the asylum.

Like Rock Paper Scissors - Muboshgu beats out Glane23

It was easier to put Ed Mangano in a prison than it was to say that he was sentenced to prison on Wikipedia.
