SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 19 –
Anthony Guzzone took bribes
while working for Bloomberg
LP. He pleaded guilty to tax
evasion.
On January
19 U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Lewis J. Liman held a
sentencing proceeding. Inner
City Press covered it.
Judge
Liman told Guzzone that tax
evasion is serious, is rarely
identified and so must be
punished. He noted among other
things that people say Guzzone
is a fine chef.
He
sentenced him to 38 months and
afterward the US Attorney's
Office said Guzzone, "former
Director of Global
Construction at Bloomberg, LP
(“Bloomberg”), was sentenced
today in Manhattan federal
court to 38 months in prison
for evading taxes on more than
$1.45 million in bribes he
received from building
sub-contractors. GUZZONE
previously pled guilty to
those charges, and was
sentenced today before U.S.
District Judge Lewis J.
Liman.
In related
proceedings, co-conspirator
Michael Campana, a subordinate
construction manager at
Bloomberg, was sentenced on
July 24, 2020, by the
Honorable Denise L. Cote to 24
months in prison, for evading
taxes on more than $420,000 in
the same scheme. In
addition, Ronald Olson and
Vito Nigro, two managers of a
construction contractor that
performed projects for
Bloomberg, have separately
pled guilty to evading taxes
on more than $1.4 million and
$1.8 million in bribes that
they respectively received in
the same scheme. Olson
is scheduled to be sentenced
on February 3 before U.S.
District Judge P. Kevin
Castel, and Nigro is scheduled
to be sentenced on March 8
before U.S. District Judge
Analisa Torres."
This case is US
v. Guzzone, 20-cr-354 (Liman)
