| New York ethics commission raps Paterson |
| 2010-03-04 |
| The hits just keep coming for New York Gov. David Paterson: the New York Times reported Wednesday that the state's Commission on Public Integrity found that the Democratic executive violated a ban on gifts for public officials by accepting free World Series tickets for himself and his son. The ethics body also found that Paterson falsely testified that he had intended to pay for the tickets. The charges carry a maximum penalty of $40,000 each. |
