WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. – Former New York City police Commissioner Bernard Kerik, who was hailed as a hero alongside former Mayor Rudy Giuliani after the Sept. 11 terror attacks and nearly became chief of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, was sentenced to four years behind bars Thursday for eight felonies.
Kerik admitted in November that he lied to the White House, filed false taxes and committed other crimes.
"The fact that Mr. Kerik would use that event (9/11) for personal gain and aggrandizement is a dark place in the soul for me," said federal Judge Stephen Robinson.
An apologetic Kerik said before the sentence was pronounced: "Allow me to return to my wife and two little girls as soon as possible."
Federal guidelines indicated Kerik's sentence should be between 27 and 33 months in prison. Robinson said he went beyond the guidelines because they could not account for certain factors.

The defense spoke of his bleak upbringing, his steely leadership after the terror attacks, his remorse and the debt he has incurred to defend himself. It supplied letters of support from his son, fellow police officers, a priest and a man who lost two sons on Sept. 11.

There was no letter from Giuliani.

1. "...the debt he has incurred to defend himself..." = "don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

Do your four years, Bernie. Then you can see your wife and two little girls again. And hey, they can come visit daddy in prison, too, so turn that frown upside down.

5. "...his steely leadership after the terror attacks..." ....Huh?

He was angling for a JOB...and some of that steely leadership was to impress women so they would hang out at his "love-nest" overlooking "the pit".:puke:

He's just another con-man/opportunist

7. His "steely" leadership

was cut down like a thermite-laced beam.

6. I hear they love dirty cops in prison

~And it sounds like Giuliani hasn't gotten the memo that his political career is over. The creep should have stood next to his partner in crime.
