He ruined people's financial futures all over the place by causing stocks to de-value in extraordinary ways as a result of his laser focus on issues which ultimately only mattered to his pure-of-heart public image, and his ambition to become Governor of my state.
People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Whether or not his "crime" was terrible, well, it's not so much what he did, but who he projected himself to be - which was this pure, pure judge of everyone.... Every dog indeed DOES have his day! Good-bye to the bum!

If you're interested, one day I'll really tell you how I feel..... ;D
I do find it strange that the New York Public Library does NOT have a link to NY State's version of the FL Victim Services Directory. See for yourself. Here are links to the NYPL legal research guide http://www.nypl.org/research/sibl/law/ and the NY Crime Victim's Board http://www.cvb.state.ny.us/HelpforCr...eaProgram.aspx

Seems like unless links like these are just so much smoke and mirrors, many NY library systems would have a link to help out victims/survivors of crimes.

I have been bugging politicians, the media, celebrities and anyone else with the power to do something to help victims of crimes get better access to information since mid-1991. Do think that if the Governor of NY--Eliot Spitzer-- thought this was REALLY a serious issue, then the NYPL would have a link to the NY CVB's "HelpforCrimeVictims" program locator. This just seems like common sense.
