Former Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos was convicted of corruption.
His claim that he showed “courage” in passing the SAFE Act apparently did not move the judge as Skelos received a 5 year prison sentence plus $500,000 fine. Junior got a 6.5 year sentence for his part in the scheme.
Dean #Skelos lawyer said that he had "political acts of courage" as a legislator including the SAFE gun legislation

This prick should have gotten a min of 10 years.The fact that they are not lead from the courtroom in cuffs directly to jail also bites.
What goes around comes around…………………
SAFE didn’t help anybody.
Untrue. I got a chuckle out of Dean bringing it up in the courtroom.
