From the New York Post:
Attorney General Andrew Cuomo said yesterday he has found “extensive evidence” of wrongdoing by state Senate Majority Leader Pedro Espada, including bilking his Bronx not-for-profit health-care clinic of $130,000 a year by switching a janitorial contract to an Espada-owned firm.
The explosive allegations were outlined in a 17-page motion filed in Manhattan state Supreme Court that seeks to enforce a subpoena for a wide range of records issued to the for-profit Espada Management Co. in August.
The motion says that Espada and his allies at nonprofit Soundview HealthCare Network arranged in 2007 to switch a $270,000-a-year janitorial contract to Espada Management, which was then paid $396,000 a year for providing the same services.
