January 25th is the sixth anniversary of the violent passing of a Manhattan office worker, Florence Cioffi. She was 59 years old, a few days short of her next birthday. The criminal responsible was Enterprise Engineering, Inc.'s (then and now again) Chairman and CEO George Anderson. Vehicular manslaughter, DUI, leaving the scene.

The infamy of the case devolves from the combination of admitted felony manslaughter with DUI and the extraordinary avoidance of justice from the penalty.
Wall Street owns the New York criminal justice system the way the Koch brothers own the Tea Party. Despite killing Florence Cioffi, this George Anderson receive a 16-day sentence at Rikers Island and a $350 fine. He had gotten drunk at a Rangers game, drove 60 m.p.h. up Water Street (an ordinary Manhattan city street, 30 m.p.h. speed limit), fled the scene, and then arranging a deal with the Manhattan D.A.
Media coverage started with the Post, the New York Times, and the area television stations. However, when Anderson was let off, our corporate press whimpered and fell silent. Crimes have not been prosecuted in New York on financial industry criminals since the first round of Dot.com scams in the early/mid 1990's. Manslaughter for a wrist slap was one small step further into that abyss.
The career path of David Hammer, Esq., the prosecutor, has continued to advance. This despite voiding the New York State sentencing requirements that had been pushed through by M.A.D.D. He is now in the management track. Details below the fold.
