The Gary Felasco Fiasco
The county Treasurer in New Castle, PA won’t resign. Check out why his colleagues and constituents think he should.
1. Didn’t pay his taxes, and friends’ properties show up on the tax-exempt list.
… he had not been paying his taxes and his properties had mysteriously shown up on a tax-exempt list, along with those of some friends.
Felasco has repaid more than $8,000 in past-due property taxes and penalties. He told the New Castle paper he simply forgot to pay them.
Still unexplained, however, is how the properties showed up on the tax-exempt rolls while he ran the tax claim office.
2. He used his government cell phone to … well, read below.
… his county cell phone number turned up on a Web site promoting sex parties.
The local newspaper conducted a sting: They called the number at “Jeannie in the Bottle” and got directions from someone named Gary to an Ohio hotel where a swingers’ party was advertised. Outside, they snapped a picture of Felasco’s van.
…
Felasco has returned two county-issued cell phones. But Craig said the treasurer still owes $4,000 for calls on the phone whose number was listed on the Web site.
3. Oh, and some discrepencies in receipts.
A preliminary report found $44,000 in receipts were unaccounted for in one three-month period; Felasco said the discrepancy is due to confusion over how his office tallies credit card payments for dog licenses and other fees.
And Jeannine Felasco, his [ex?] wife says:
If you want to get Gary thrown out of office, you need to do a lot better than that.
Nice.

all of you need to stop blaming him. it may not be him who did it. you should check everyone who was in that office. why blame just one when there were a bunch of people in that office. it’s not fair to him. Plus u don’t believe every thing u see in the newspappers do you? so if ur mom is in the news and they say she’s a lesbo i’ll believe it since every one is believing things about gary so u can all kiss my white ass okay
