It certainly takes very little imagination to connect the following dots.
An informed source informed the blogger on July 6, 2011 that SAM SCAFFIDE, the Brunswick Service Director had been removed from his office for misappropriation of funds.
A brief inquiry located the following online article at Cleveland. com, found at this link http://blog.cleveland.com/brunswicksuntimes/2011/05/scaffide_leaving_brunwick_serv.html
Stealing from the public while in governmental employment is a criminal offense, otherwise known as THEFT IN OFFICE, in violation of Section 2921.41 of the Ohio Revised Code, A FELONY OFFENSE. The Theft in Office Statute can be found at http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2921.41
SECTION 2921.41 OF THE Ohio Revised Code provides:
A) No public official or party official shall commit any theft offense, as defined in division (K) of section 2913.01 of the Revised Code, when either of the following applies:
(1) The offender uses the offender’s office in aid of committing the offense or permits or assents to its use in aid of committing the offense;
(2) The property or service involved is owned by this state, any other state, the United States, a county, a municipal corporation, a township, or any political subdivision, department, or agency of any of them, is owned by a political party, or is part of a political campaign fund.
SECTION 2901.01 OF THE OHIO REVISED CODE DEFINES "PUBLIC OFFICIAL" THUSLY:
THEFT OFFENSES PROSCRIBED BY SECTION 2913.01 OF THE OHIO REVISED CODE CAN BE FOUND AT http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/2913(A) “Public official” means any elected or appointed officer, or employee, or agent of the state or any political subdivision, whether in a temporary or permanent capacity, and includes, but is not limited to, legislators, judges, and law enforcement officers. “Public official” does not include an employee, officer, or governor-appointed member of the board of directors of the nonprofit corporation formed under section 187.01 of the Revised Code.
One of the consequences of conviction for the OFFENSE OF THEFT IN OFFICE is set out in SECTION 2921.41 OF THE OHIO REVISED CODE:
C)(1) A public official or party official who pleads guilty to theft in office and whose plea is accepted by the court or a public official or party official against whom a verdict or finding of guilt for committing theft in office is returned is forever disqualified from holding any public office, employment, or position of trust in this state.
Now, the common citizen residing in the County of Medina might reasonably believe that theft by a public official would merit a prosecution. That, of course, is not the case if you happen to be politically connected in Medina County.
The blogger has queried the websites of the Clerk of the Medina County Court of Common Pleas found at http://www.co.medina.oh.us/medct_epublicnodr/ and the Clerk of the Medina Municipal Court found at http://24.144.216.42/connection/court//index.xsp. NOT SURPRISINGLY, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO RECORD OF ANY PROSECUTION OF SCAFFIDE TO BE FOUND!
If you have read the article at Cleveland.com, linked above, you will notice that, in addition to his former employment as the Brunswick Service Director, Scaffide is also involved in Democrat politics as a Councilman in Twinsburg, Ohio.
Based on the above, it is obvious that, if Scafiide were to be convicted of the Felony Offense of Theft in Office by fellow Democrat Dino Holman, Scaffide would be forever barred from holding any public office and position in the future.
DINO HOLMAN IS JUST NOT PREPARED TO CONVICT ANOTHER CORRUPT FELLOW DEMOCRAT, ESPECIALLY A DEMOCRAT CONNECTED TO CUYAHOGA COUNTY COMMISSIONER JIMMY DIMORA!
Of course, HOLMAN is no stranger to looking the other way when it comes to theft in office. In fact, all one need do is look to the conduct of HOLMAN'S ASS. PROSECUTOR SCOTT SALISBURY, THE PATHOLOGICAL LIAR. [See http://medinacorruption.blogspot.com/2010/12/salisbury-poet-continues-to-steal-your.html ] AND [http://medinacorruption.blogspot.com/2011/04/assistant-prosecutor-scott-salisbury.html ]
READERS MAY RECALL ANOTHER LOCAL POLITICIAN WHO WAS NEVER PROSECUTED BY HOLMAN. [See http://medinacorruption.blogspot.com/2010/12/equaler-protection-under-law-in-medina.html ]
HOWEVER, MORE THAN THE ABOVE, THE PLOT THICKENS WELL BEYOND THE PUBLIC VIEW AND THERE IS QUITE A BIT MORE TO THIS STORY THAN MEETS THE EYE.
In or about 1974, SAM SCAFFIDE was arrested at Northfield, Ohio on the basis of a FEDERAL ARREST WARRANT which charged SCAFFIDE WITH A FEDERAL FELONY OFFENSE ARISING FROM THE POSSESSION AND USE OF STOLEN CREDIT CARDS.
How, do you suppose, that the requisite background check of SCAFFIDE prior to his hire eluded the detection of Brunswick City Officials? An inquiry of the NATIONAL CRIME INFORMATION CENTER (NCIC) database would have most surely provided SCAFFIDE'S FBI Number and documented his Federal prosecution.
And just how did SCAFFIDE, a resident of Twinsburg, get the job of Service Director in Brunswick?
ACCORDING TO AN INFORMED SOURCE, CUYAHOGA COUNTY COMMISSIONER JIMMY DIMORA, CURRENTLY UNDER FEDERAL INDICTMENT IN THE CUYAHOGA COUNTY CORRUPTION PROBE, PLACED A TELEPHONE CALL TO A MEDINA COUNTY PUBLIC OFFICIAL AND PERSONALLY ARRANGED FOR SCAFFIDE TO GET THE JOB!
IT IS PLAIN TO SEE HOW THE TENTACLES OF ORGANIZED CRIME AND CORRUPTION IN CUYAHOGA COUNTY HAVE REACHED WELL DOWN INTO MEDINA COUNTY,
THIS IS JUST ONE MORE REASON THAT MEDINA COUNTY NEEDS A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF ITS "CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM" BY THE CRIMINAL DIVISION OF THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
MUCH MORE TO COME ....
