[L]et’s take a look at just a sampling of the behavior of the man that Rudy thought should be the head of the federal Department of Homeland Security:
• Allegedly traded $165,000 worth of renovations on his house from a contractor who wanted a license from the city.
• Quit his post training a new Iraqi police force in 2003 after just four months on the job, telling reporters “he needed a vacation.” [Washington Post]
• Used the apartment donated for weary Ground Zero rescue workers into his own personal love nest to use with his mistress. [NY Times]
• Was named in a civil suit in 1999 as “the architect of a system to force prison guards to work for Republicans in their off-hours.” [Newsweek]
• Had mob ties that include the best man in his wedding, Lawrence Ray, who was indicted in 2000 along with other organized crime figures in a scheme to manipulate the stock market. [Washington Post]
• Is now being sued for stiffing the law firm that kept him out of jail for more than $200,000. [NY Daily News]
