MAMARONECK, NY  – New York State Senator Pedro Espada Jr. is under investigation for stealing $14 million from the  Soundview Health Center in the South Bronx.

Particularly distressing is $20,000 in sushi which was charged to the Health Center, and delivered over 200 times to Espada’s house in Mamaroneck.

Espada denies living in Mamaroneck or eating any sushi over the past ten years.  The evidence suggests otherwise, with Espada’s name appearing on all the sushi receipts (over 200 of them).

Espada continues to deny it however. “I am Puerto Rican…we don’t go for that fishy stuff,” he declared in an Albany press conference yesterday.

Espada is wrong here. The sooner he stops lying, the better off he’ll be. 

In the meantime, the Puerto Rican Guy loves sushi, and will gladly accept delivery of Espada’s unwanted fish.
