Crooked Construction Firms?
The Con
In the April 11, 2009 edition of the New York Times, an article detailed how the Yankees and Mets used several construction firms with links to organized crime while building their new stadiums.
The New York City Economic Development Corp., which oversaw the stadium projects, took no action against the firms although several of the owners had not only been indicted but had done jail time for past indiscretions.
Wow, crooked construction firms, who knew?
