Medisys CEO convicted of bribery

From the NY Times:

A former hospital chief executive was convicted on Monday in a far-reaching scheme to pay bribes to three New York State legislators in return for beneficial treatment toward his health care organization, MediSys Health Network.

The former executive, David P. Rosen, 63, was the first defendant to be tried as part of a federal investigation announced in March that has been seen as a stunning snapshot of the continuing problem of pervasive corruption in Albany.

At a trial this summer, prosecutors presented evidence that Mr. Rosen had funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars to two Democratic assemblymen, William F. Boyland Jr. of Brooklyn and Anthony S. Seminerio, of Queens, through sham consulting contracts.

In return, prosecutors charged that the officials showered Mr. Rosen’s organization with state money and lobbied the state government on his behalf.

As Rosen has obviously violated State laws, shouldn't DA Brown charge him with State crimes?

Seminerio exonerated. Now, stop advertising sirens on empty ambulances.

recent NY POST headline,"SIX CITY HOSPS IN CRITICAL CONDITION ".

Jamaica,Flushing, Brookdale hospitals are part of the MediSys Health Network.

An analysis found that nearly half of the hospital's costly emergency admissions were NOT for emergency illnesses.

this means that the taxpayer is paying the tab for illegal aliens medical care , via an UNSUSTAINABLE MEDICAID (WELFARE) plan in NYS.
