Wangerman & Eight Charged with Steamfitters Union Bribery Now He Pleads to 8-14 Months

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 4 – William Wangerman and eight others were charged with honest services fraud in connection with Local 638 of the Enterprise Association of Steamfitters.

   On June 17, 2021 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Colleen McMahon held a proceeding.

 Inner City Press covered it.     It took some time to make sure all of the defendants and their lawyers were present.

Then Judge McMahon set a schedule: discovery from the government due in 30 days, defendants have 90 days to review it.

Jump cut to November 4, 2022. Inner City Press was covering the SDNY Magistrates Court, as the only media there, when Wangerman and his defense counsel came in to plead guilty before Magistrate Judge Barbara C. Moses.

   Wangerman said he is 62 with some college and also some difficulties in reading due to eye sight. He used glasses he called cheaters to read his plea agreement, for eight to 14 months and a fine from $4000 to $15,000. Sentencing is set for January 30, 2023 at 4 pm.

 Previously, as Inner City Press also exclusively reported, co-defendant Norton's voice broke and he seemed to cry during his allocution. Not so for Wangerman. He offered best wishes as he left the courtroom.

The case is USA v. Cahill et al, 20-cr-521 (McMahon)
