Sliwa's ex-wife says Curtis and Katz are scammers

From the Daily News:

Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa and former City Councilwoman Melinda Katz scammed Sliwa's ex-wife out of more than $400,000 in a bizarre child-support payment scheme, a new $1.4 million lawsuit charges.

Mary Sliwa says that when she and her husband were still together, the famous anti-crime activist used their marital assets to make inflated support payments to Katz, who had two children in-vitro with Sliwa as her sperm donor.

The angry ex-wife says that Sliwa also cheated on her with Katz, now a leading contender for Queens borough president.

Mary Sliwa says her husband made the bloated child support payments because he was planning to divorce her and shack up with Katz.

Katz received $96,000 a year tax free for several years starting in 2008, says the lawsuit against Sliwa, 59, and the Queens politician, 47.

Now Mary Sliwa, 59, and the special needs child she had with the red beret-wearing media personality, are that much the poorer, according to the suit, which demands $405,000 back, plus interest and $1 million in damages.

She says that when Katz had her first in-vitro baby in 2008, Sliwa denied any intimate relationship with the Queens politician and said his sperm had been “frozen” years before.

“During the next several months, the co-defendants conspired with each other to drain marital assets so Curtis Sliwa could leave plaintiff in due course, join his mistress, Melinda Katz, and have a ‘nest egg’ of marital assets,” the suit states.

Mary Sliwa says her husband was required to pay no more than $1,700 a month to Katz — but paid $8,000, plus $1,150 to provide “his mistress” with a life insurance policy. That amounted to more than half of his income, according to the astonishing suit.

If he tried to scam his other ex-wife, Lisa Evers, she'd kick his ass.

I do not know what is more perplexing:

1. Queens politicians.

2. The people that reelect Queens politicians.

You cannot make something like this up. Would anyone believe this if this was made into a movie or something?

Curtis Sliwa was a Sri Chinmoy follower. that's the guru who owns a private tennis court and all those business & apartment buildings on Parson's Blvd off Hillside Avenue in Jamaica.
Curtis railed against the Teachers Union on the radio. what job did he ever do? As for Curtis's claim that the mafia was after him, it was only another sad publicity stunt.

I feel sorry for his special needs son. if that means retarded then Curtis has been robbing a little developmentally disabled boy.

check out Sleezwa's testimony at the gotti trial.

he falsified police reports, lied to the media, staged crimes that didn't take place in order to promote his goon squad, ...and on, and on.
makes for interesting reading.

Katz will be wife #4. Lisa Sliwa was wife #2, and works for Fox 5 under the name Lisa Evers. Mary was #3.

How do you pay child support as a sperm donor? More dirty tricks from a career politician and a guy who never had a real job his whole adult life.

You guys in Queens gotta work harder to get rid of her. Shes painting this mess as a private divorce matter instead of the swindle it is.
Please get to work. The park depends on you not to mention simple human decency.
