Corrupt Surrogate Judge Anthony Scarpino Now Accused of Stonewalling

The Queen of Surrogate's Courts' Money Grabbers, Anthony A. Scarpino, Jr., has now been accused of "stonewalling" in a $250 million Westchester estate, according the New York Daily News.

(CLICK HERE to see the NY Daily News article, "Court orders wealthy New York wide to give part of $250 million fortune to former adopted daughter.")   --  (CLICK HERE to see ABC Good Morning America, "Widow Owes Rejected Adopted Daughter Miilions, Court Rules.")

While the Appellate Division in Brooklyn affirmed the lower court's decisions on February 6, 2013 (See the decision below), Scarpino's court is accused of secreting the fact that the estate in question was valued at more than a quarter billion dollars.  One fact, though, was never in dispute.  Scarpino and his troubled chief court clerk, Joseph M. Accetta, continues to preside over a corrupt death machine that allowed the Svenningsen Estate to linger, and generate unnecessary legal fees, for years- since John Svenningsen's death in 1997.   

Not to worry, though, "stonewaller" is probably the nicest name Anthony Scarpino has been called since becoming the lone Westchester Surrogate Court Judge in 2001. Scarpino ran for the Surrogate Judge spot touting his status as a former "special agent for the FBI," however it has been long-rumored that he pushed out of the FBI.  Residents have wondered for years how the criminal acts of Westchester insiders have gone unaddressed by federal prosecutors.  A clue may have come in October of 2012, when a federal grand jury in Salt Lake City indicted a former FBI agent, Robert Lustyik, from Westchester who used his position to derail criminal charges against a friend.  Lustyik had been stationed in White Plains, and the case involved a multimillion-dollar scheme to win military contracts in Afghanistan.  (CLICK HERE TO SEE, "Former FBI Agent and Alleged Co-Conspirators Indicted for Scheme to Obstruct Federal Fraud Investigation)   

In fairness, though, Scarpino is not alone- those loyal to him have received their own deserved criticism.

Westchester Surrogate's Court Chief Clerk, Joseph M. Accetta, has been accused of being more sloppy than usual over the last few years as he's been battling a nasty divorce with his attorney-wife Susan Hegquist Accetta, of Stern Keiser & Panken, LLP in White Plains, in one neighboring courtroom (Index #7871/11)- all while fighting another nasty lawsuit as a defendant involving a neighbor in another courtroom (Noah P. Kilduff v. Joseph Accetta, Index # 50176/11).

The misdeeds of Scarpino's  criminal clan includes one favorite among Westchester insiders who chuckle at the concept of "conflicts of interest" in Westchester.  An attorney-referee, Jody B. Keltz, and her attorney-husband, Carl T. Peluso, ended up living in the house of 88-year-old Berta Murray, whose estate Keltz was "overseeing" for Scarpino.  (CLICK HERE TO SEE, "Brooke Astor Court Attorney Living in Dead Lady's Home- Surprise to Family Members.)

In the estate of Fred F. Goetz, Scarpino was accused, along with then-chief court clerk Charles T. Scott, currently in private practice with Greenfield Stein & Senior, LL, of accepting known fraudulent documents, participating in improper ex parte communications, and in setting up a dummy trustee to control all the money.  (CLICK HERE TO SEE THE GOETZ STORY)

In another case, Scarpino and Accetta were accused of accepting, filing and issuing court orders based on knowingly fraudulent back-dated documents to protect attorney Frank W. Streng of McCarthy Finger.  Streng had been on Scarpino's election transition team, and the case involved the theft of over $100,000.00 of 9/11 Red Cross donation monies and insurance fraud.  Scarpino, Streng and Accetta are accused of preventing the repayment of the stolen monies, choosing instead for the monies to go to lawyers.  Scarpino ultimately recused himself in that estate after a New York Times article was published (CLICK HERE TO SEE THE SCARPINO RED CROSS 9/11 THEFT STORY)

The icing on the cake, however, goes to Scarpino's involvement in the estate of Ice Cream magnate Tom Carvel, where over 20 attorneys were made millionaires on Carvel money.   On the eve of trial, Scarpino received $400,000.00 in bank loans from the same bank that Scarpino appointed to handle the hundreds of millions of Carvel money.  (CLICK HERE TO SEE, "IRS Looking at Surrogate, Lawyer and Bank Chairman Link)  ----  (CLICK HERE TO SEE, "State Senate Hears of Hundreds of Millions Stolen Through Westchester Courts")   ---   (CLICK HERE TO SEE FORMAL COMPLAINT AGAINST SCARPINO IN CARVEL MATTER)

In addition to a $250million IRS criminal division inquiry, Scarpino is currently under investigation for his involvement in the illegal creation of criminal charges in another Westchester estate that resulted in millions be billed and controlled by Scarpino supporters.

Note: Anthony Scarpino dresses nicely.
