Six former Philadelphia Traffic Court judges head to federal court on accusations they participated in a widespread ticket-fixing scheme.
IT'S TIME for the judges to be judged.
Six former Traffic Court judges and two businessmen will head to federal court in Philadelphia this morning for jury selection in their trial on accusations that they participated in a widespread ticket-fixing scheme.
The ex-judges - Michael Sullivan, Michael Lowry, Robert Mulgrew, Willie Singletary, Thomasine Tynes and Mark Bruno - allegedly gave preferential treatment on tickets to politically or socially connected people.
In so doing, the government contends, they defrauded the city and state of needed funds.
The businessmen - Henry "Eddie" Alfano and Robert Moy - are accused of using their connections with former or then-current judges to help get tickets fixed for people they knew.
Opening statements likely will come tomorrow or Wednesday.
Federal prosecutors, in a trial memorandum filed Thursday, said they expect the case to last about a month and will call at least 101 witnesses to the stand.
The witnesses include people who allegedly had their tickets fixed, asked for tickets to be fixed on behalf of someone else, or helped to get tickets fixed.
The list includes City Councilman Kenyatta Johnson; John Fenton, an aide to Councilwoman Jannie Blackwell; and ward leaders William Dolbow, Michael McAleer, Emilio Vazquez and Matt Myers. It also includes people who worked in Traffic Court.
