Yonkers, NY -- Vincent L. Leibell, representing the 40th Senate District, whose constituency reside within parts of Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, and Dutchess Counties, has stepped down as New York State Senator. The Yonkers Tribune has learned that Mr Leibell has accepted a plea bargaining agreement worked out with the Feds. By accepting the plea bargaining agreement, Mr Leibell will avoid receipt of an indictment which had been held in abeyance by his accepting the deal. Anthony "Tony" Servino, who was a partner in the law office of Servino, Santangelo & Randazzo, is alleged to have implicated Mr Leibell as well as Anthony Mangone, who days ago pleaded guilty in White Plains federal court to conspiracy, bribery, extortion, and tax evasion charges. More information as it is revealed this Thursday, December 2, 2010. Anthony Mangone had at one time been an employee of that same firm.
