New York State Senator Shirley Huntley turned herself in at the Nassau
County Courthouse today to face charges that she funneled taxpayer money to a
phony charity and then tried to cover it up.
Four people, including the senator, her legislative aid and her niece were
all charged with various felony counts today, for creating what Attorney
General Eric Schneiderman calls a sham charity in 2006, the Parents Workshop in
Valley Stream Long Island, run out of a house in a residential neighborhood,
where he contends no charitable work was ever done, but nearly $30,000 of
taxpayer money was used to line their pockets.
