A former judge shot and killed himself when FBI agents arrived at his Orange County home to arrest him Tuesday, police sources tell CBS News New York.
A quiet condominium complex along Route 416 in Campbell Hall quickly turned into a chaotic scene. A big police response was seen at the Blackburne Homes complex, where Stewart Rosenwasser, a former county court judge, took his own life.
Rosenwasser, who resigned from the Orange County District Attorney’s Office in June, was accused in an indictment unsealed Tuesday of taking approximately $63,000 in bribes to leverage his position in the DA’s office to investigate two people.
The article mentioned a Mout’z Soudani, but went into no further detail. This article has a little more context on the investigation into Orange County and the bribery scheme.
Martin Soudani was charged and pleaded guilty last year to an alleged $1.6 million cryptocurrency scheme that was investigated by then Executive Assistant District Attorney Stewart Rosenwasser.
™The former prosecutor and retired Orange County Court Judge is accused of knowing the alleged victim, Moutz “Marty” Soudani, the suspect’s uncle, and taking almost $50,000 from him to investigate the case.
Yea this confirms what I thought. He also allegedly imprisoned and sexually abused his sister for 45 years: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/new-york-woman-claims-she-was-sexual-slave-to-her-brother-for-45-years-lawsuit/ar-AA1lGqE7
Guessing we know which relatives he wanted investigated.
From the sound of things, he took the money to help an abuser get his rape victim back ----- eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeshhhh
Yeah, it was more salacious even that that. I decided not to post the rest.
