“We want to know where these people worked and when,’’ Cuomo said in a statement.
“We also want to know why they were hired and under what circumstances.’’
The 10 either serve or served on the board of directors of Espada’s non-profit Soundview Healthcare Network, or worked for the organization. Cuomo alleged in an explosive civil suit Tuesday that Espada siphoned more than $14 million from Soundview for himself, his family, and his friends.
Yesterday, FBI, IRS and officials of Cuomo’s office conducted an early morning raid of Soundview armed with a federal search warrant issued pursuant a criminal investigation into alleged mail and tax fraud and the misuse of state and federal funds.
