Mayoral, DA candidates allege District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis used public resources for campaign

WILKES-BARRE — A Republican running for mayor and the Democrat hopeful for district attorney are lobbing joint allegations of illegal use of public office at Luzerne County District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis.
“You’re not going to campaign with my tax dollars,” Frank Sorick said Wednesday.
Sorick, running for mayor of Wilkes-Barre and president of the Wilkes-Barre City Taxpayers Association, claimed Wednesday in a letter addressed to Salavantis that an email exchange indicates her office used county resources in March to pull “confidential” files related to an animal crueltycase district attorney candidate Vito DeLuca handled in 2003 as a public defense attorney.
The email, which Sorick says was sent between March 4 and 5, says the files would be needed “by Monday.”
Sorick claims the records were pulled as a research effort against DeLuca, who had just received a campaign endorsement related to animal rights.
The allegations warrant a criminal investigation, Sorick wrote. His letter goes on to demand Salavantis refer the matter to the state Office of Attorney General and provide him with written proof of her office’s compliance.
Contacted for comment, DeLuca confirmed his support of the allegations and his involvement in bringing them to light.
“Our cities are turning into war zones; she’s complaining her office doesn’t have resources and this is how she uses those resources,” DeLuca said.
“Maybe someone should ask Vito who the prosecutor was,” Salavantis responded. “The thought of using one 12-year-old guilty plea as a representation of something in a 2015 race for district attorney is grasping at straws.”
The case’s prosecutor, she said, was now First Assistant District Attorney Sam Sanguedolce, and it was the only animal cruelty case he had handled. Salavantis said her office sought the file as reference for a meeting she and Sanguedolce had with the SPCA regarding a pending animal cruelty case.
Salavantis said the meeting was to occur on the Monday by which she required the records in question.
Case documents, which are public record, indicate Sanguedolce served as prosecutor and that DeLuca represented the defendant in the particular case, though free online records list another attorney as the attorney of record. DeLuca said this must have been done by mistake.
Behind the retrieval of the email, both he and Sorick said, was vocal blogger and city critic Mark Robbins.
Robbins filed a right-to-know request first with the DA’s office seeking the email, but was denied, DeLuca and Sorick said. He then filed another with the county and received the message.
DeLuca said he has known about the exchange since July, but decided not to come forward until he felt certain the district attorney’s office had no legitimate use for the file.


Though Obstruction of Justice charges will be examined for the 189 cases that the DA has dismissed... charges were filed today regarding other premeditated act(s).

1) A case can be made for theft of services against Salavantis as shes uses her $180,000 salary to work on her campaign site during business hours. Here is an example (there are more):


Follow up Question: Did parents give consent for these students?   

2) A person within the courthouse witnessed Marilyn King (Secretary/Office Mgr) personally soliciting court house workers encouraging them to "write-in" Salavantis during the time of 2015 Primary. This is Diversion of Services.

3) Please read for more Charges...

THE ACTORS:
Stefanie Salavantis – Current District Attorney
Sam Sanguedolce – First Assistant District Attorney
Toni Ardo – District Attorneys Office Manager
Marilyn King – Personal Secretary to Stefanie Salavantis
other names withheld at this time


EVIDENCE:
I received a tip that Salavantis was using her office to do opposition research on her political opponent in the race for the District Attorneys Office, Vito DeLuca. Vito DeLuca has just received the public support of animal rights activists due to Salavantis’ mishandling of a case involving the starvation death of three horses.  My source said that a clerk was directed to retrieve a confidential, criminal file from 2002 where Vito DeLuca was the criminal defense attorney. The case was one involving a cruelty to animals charge where Attorney Deluca, as a Public defender, had a legal obligation to defend the person charged. The case had been closed for at least twelve years. Note that the clerk (further down)  is directed by Salavantis’ secretary to pull the file and Salavantis, Sanguedolce, and the office manager, Toni Ardo are copied on the file.

THIS IS ILLEGAL.  THIS IS AN UNLAWFUL USE OF YOUR TAX DOLLARS!  SALAVANTIS SHOULD SUFFER THE SAME FATE AS HER BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN PUBLIC CORRUPTION … REMOVAL FROM OFFICE, PROSECUTION, AND JAIL!

The Process...


I immediately filed a Right to Know Request with the District Attorneys Office in an attempt to secure proof.


I received a response from the District Attorneys Office Right to Know Officer requesting a thirty day extension due to “staffing limitations.”  You will soon see the CAUSE of their STAFFING LIMITATIONS…

On August 27, 2015, the District Attorney’s Office DENIED my request…



The DA’s response said… “The above exception notwithstanding, our office has not generated any email… referred to in your request. Although any information sought in cases defended by Attorney DeLuca is public and available through the Clerk of Courts, this office has not directed research, investigation, etc. into such a matter.”

I then filed a Right to Know Request with the County’s IT Department in an attempt to secure proof…

The County granted my request and provided me with the following EVIDENCE that PROVES the District Attorney is using her PUBLIC, ELECTED Office, Confidential Files, Staff, and Equipment for campaign purposes. We know that she has broken the law... but we don't know the full extent of her criminal behavior. Sources were quoted as saying that staff was aked to "dig up on DeLuca." The intensity of her efforts is matched only by her desparation considering she went as far as to chase down a 12 year old file of Deluca's.  


DA TOSSES DUI (of approx 35 total) - NO REASON GIVEN


FACTS:    - Truck came within a foot of killing patrolman Loftus

WITH TONY GEORGE... NOTHING CHANGES


Some whiney babies don't like the truth spoken about W-B Mayoral Candidate Tony George. I received the usual threat from Joe W (he threatens when he is drunk). Too bad. The goal is to find the best person for the job... to find who is best for the residents of Wilke-Barre.

Let's examine some topics and ask your self... is this Mayor material?

1) Same old... same old   MAJOR LIES    Tony George had a clear agreement with Frank Sorick that there would be no "pay-to-play" dinners. TONY GEORGE broke his word like it never existed. Just the truth, folks. HE LIED. BIG TIME.

2) Same old... same old   SELLING CONTRACTS    The "Pay to Play" dinners ($250) were opportunities for contactors to buy influence. I guess Tony George thought he wouldn't be called out on it. Well you are, Tony. Why should Wilkes-Barre elect a man who can't even keep his first promise?


3) Same old... same old   CONNECTIONS   Tony George gets a security job at W-B Vo-tech through connections (former Mayor). Connections are cronyism and are part of corruption and something we don't need.

4) Same old... same old     DO-NOTHING JOB   Tony George collects a handsome salary for a decade long job that, let's face it, a sloth could do. This is no preparation for a Mayor.




5) Same old... same old     STACKING PENSIONS    From the Bill Barrett paybook, Tony George collects pensions along his travels. More money the city has to pay.

6) Same old... same old     ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN REPORTS    Tony George made a mess of his campaign reports... so much so he had to hire high priced Philadelphia attorneys. Does this make anyone comfortable? We have had to spend a decade with Rosen, Kenkins, and Greenwald on speed dial for Leighton's corruption. We need competent and honest people so the city stops hemorhaging money on attorneys. 

7) Same old... same old     INCOMPETENCE    Tony George has 
 butchered his campaign reports and has already said he may ask the colleges for help with finances etc...  Why would we hire someone that can't do the job essentials? Why don't we hire someome competent - Frank Sorick!!



8) Same old... same old     PANDERING    Tony George has all but promised city hall will remain the same. THEN WHY THE HECK ARE WE ARE HIRING HIM?

THE LIE FROM PIT OF HELL is that Frank Sorick will clean out city hall. This is nonsensical. Frank will look to remove some slackers but has relationships with many in city hall who will absolutely still have jobs based on merits and experience.

9) Same old... same old     IT WON'T GET BETTER     As one can read from the letter below, Tony George as police chief did not have full support from the officers, the public, or even the City Council.

10) Same old... same old      THIS JOB HAS PASSED HIM BY.

W-B FACES ARRESTING VERBAL WAR. 

POLICE CHIEF SAYS THERE'S NO TRUTH TO COMMENTS MADE BY DOWNTOWN COUPLE, WHO SAY COPS TOLD THEM THEY'RE TO KEEP ARRESTS DOWN DUE TO PAPERWORK.

By STEVE MOCARSKY smocarsky@leader.net

Monday, February 10, 2003     Page: 3A

WILKES-BARRE - City Police Chief Tony George on Sunday denied that he told officers not to make many arrests in downtown Wilkes-Barre. 

    Downtown residents Steve and Mary Saive said last week that officers told them ``off the record'' that they were ordered not to make many arrests to save on paperwork. 


    George said those remarks are either ``fabricated'' or officers just didn't want to make arrests, because they were ``protecting'' someone such as a friend or family member of theirs, or of a council member, who was patronizing a prostitute. 

    The chief also suggested that officers whom he disciplined might have made such statements in retaliation. 


    ``There were several officers disciplined in the last year. I'm not well liked in the department, but I work for the citizens of the city. (Some officers) make $50,000, $60,000 now, but don't think they have to earn their money. They have to do their jobs, maybe that's why they're upset,'' George said. 


    George also said there was ``no way'' his captains would give orders not to make arrests. 


    The Saives, who own an apartment building on West Ross Street, are circulating a petition seeking state help patrolling downtown. They have told City Council in recent weeks that officers rarely respond to prostitution and drug-dealing calls in a timely fashion and rarely make an arrest when they do show up. 


    Councilwoman Kathy Kane and Council President Mike McGinley have said they support the petition.      George said he received a letter from McGinley about two weeks ago asking about orders not to make arrests. 


    The chief said he responded that there are reports on every incident and officers are required to make an arrest if evidence supports one. He said he requested from council the names of officers who said they were given such orders so he could investigate, but he received no response. 


    Neither Kane nor McGinley could be reached Sunday for comment. However, Kane had said officers are afraid to speak out because of retaliation from Mayor Tom McGroarty. 


    McGroarty said he doesn't want ``to get down in the sewers'' with someone who would make an ``undignified'' comment like that that may be ``politically motivated.'' 
    McGroarty noted recent prostitution stings city police conducted with state police netted only one arrest. ``Would the state police not make arrests because of paperwork?'' McGroarty said. 


    The mayor also said officers' supposed remarks to the Saives don't make sense. He said arresting officers are the ones who do the paperwork, not supervisors or the chief, so they would have no reason to give such orders. 
    Steve Saive said he doesn't blame the police. ``They try to balance their priorities. They say, `We could take them in, but if something more serious happens in this block, you have to fend for themselves until someone can get here.' '' 


    Mary Saive said officers told her they were tired of arresting prostitutes ``and seeing them the next day because the magistrate would let them go.'' 

    McGroarty said if a police officer didn't make an arrest when warranted, the complainant should report the officer to the chief and the officer should be given the opportunity to correct his behavior. 

    Mary Saive said McGroarty was ``putting a happy face on a problem that's been here for a long time.'' 
    George also defended the department's downtown crime-fighting and crime-prevention efforts. He said an officer on horseback and an anti-crime unit car patrol the area regularly in addition to an area patrol car. He said crime has significantly decreased there during the last few years and four prostitutes were arrested in the past month. 


    But the Saives still think police aren't doing enough. 
    Mary Saive said police should arrest on suspicion of drunken driving a ``john'' who picks up a prostitute in his car when police stop to talk to the driver and smell alcohol on his breath. She said officers tell her they can't unless they have probable cause for a DUI stop. 


    George said officers must operate by the rules of criminal procedure. He added that police can't arrest a known prostitute just for walking down the street. 
    ``This isn't a police state, which I guess those people on South Franklin Street want,'' George said. 
    George confirmed that police do know many prostitutes by name. But that's because they arrested the prostitutes numerous times, not because they're friends with them. 
    George said police tell people they see loitering to move along. If police see the person loitering again, the person can be cited for defiant trespass. 
    But police can't arrest someone for loitering on the word of a citizen unless the complainant is willing to testify, George said. ``Usually, they don't want to get involved. That leaves our hands tied.''

TOO LATE SALAVANTIS... YOU CAN'T SHINE SH-T

THIS HARD TO FATHOM.  LITERALLY ONE MONTH AFTER LITTLE KEVIN MILLER WAS KILLED... SALAVANTIS THREW OUT A .236 DUI... NOT ONCE - BUT TWICE !!  SEE BELOW.  (Times Leader article states she will be using "Kevin's Law" for first time)
FROM AFFIDAVIT:
1) Kathleen Miick's BAC was .236 %; Driving a white 2011 BMW
2) She began physically fighting with officer
3) ... she poked the officer in the chest staing "why are you doing this to me I am not a fucking scumbag."
4) ... she responded by pushing the officer and stated that "she is filthy  rich and you (the officer) are a fucking prick."

Chronology:
1. Defendant stopped for DUI - 8/10/2012
2. Case filed by officer - 9/13/2012
3. Case waived to court by defendant and her attorney at the District
Justice Office - 11/20/2012

6. Case again waived to court by defendant and her attorney at the District
Justice Office - 4/9/2013

Loughnane; the alleged killer

Vough and Salavantis have helped helping Atty Olszewski and the killer Loughnane in very suspicious ways.
