By: Paul K. Rooney
Convicting the All-Time Affable Carmine De Sapio describes the prosecution of Carmine De Sapio, who was a political boss in New York during the late 1960s. De Sapio and his conspirators designed their “side deals” and shakedowns to generate major tax-free cash in the form of kickbacks and bribes from the likes of Con Edison, Broadway Maintenance, and other major players in the NYC corporate realm.
