State Rep. Habay sentenced, resigns from Legislature

By Steve Levin, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

State Rep. Jeff Habay was sentenced today to 6 to 12 months for his conviction of making his staff do campaign work on state time.

The Shaler Republican also resigned from the Legislature, effective today.

Mr. Habay's wife and mother spoke on his behalf at today's sentencing in Allegheny County court.

Mr. Habay said "I beg your honor for probation."

But Judge Jeffrey Manning noted Mr. Habay's "egregious" lack of remorse after his conviction.

He ordered him to spend 6 to 12 months of incarceration, followed by four years of probation. But Judge Manning also allowed Mr. Habay to seek alternative housing, such as a halfway house for nonviolent offenders, and allowed him to seek a work-release program.

Mr. Habay, 39, must report by March 6.

A second trial for Mr. Habay, on charges that he intimidated witnesses and made a false anthrax report to police, is scheduled for this month.

I have a feeling that the apologists will be strangely absent from this thread and if they do appear, Habay's law trouble will somehow be Clinton's fault.

Nah...it's all Rendell's fault.

All the more reason to elect the upstanding GOP'er LynnSwann88(TM) come November

(now excuse me while I go puke)

Did your hear they're creating a Cabinet Post for this very purpose?

Speaking as a die hard Steelers fan... if Lynn Swann gets elected governer, I will get up and denounce the state of PA.

He needs to resign, and he needs to go to jail.

Are you going to put up a Democrat list, too? Certainly you aren't so ignorant to think that only one party is corrupt, do you?
