Register of Probate John Buonomo was caught on camera taking change out of copying machines in his office and another machine in the register of deeds office across the hall. He has been charged with more than 30 criminal offenses. He has been put on unpaid administrative leave pending a trial, and presumably authorities have taken away his keys to the copy machines.
Petty thievery is an outrage in any case, and doubly so when the accused thief is already being paid more than $100,000 a year by the taxpayers of Middlesex County.
Here's the farce: Buonomo is up for re-election in November and, so far, says he doesn't intend to withdraw. And he has no opponent, in either the Democratic primary or the general election.

ReplyDeleteFrom what other sources did the dishonorable Register of Probate John Buonomo steal money?
I hope the authorities, immediately, send a truck load of law enforcement agents to seize all probate case files; financial records relating to his campaign war chest; his IRS and State tax return records reviewing all of his financial records and bank account records going back in time.
When the guy is in jail, I do hope there won't be any further state benefits for him!
ReplyDeleteHe's up for re-election?
ReplyDeleteHe should be up for "the boot" instead!
If he steals change, then he likely steals anything he can get his greedy hands on.
