Cuomo Perfected His M.O. At HUD With $59 Billion Unaccounted For

  Modus operandi, M.O.,  is a Latin phrase, approximately translated as "method of operating".  The term is used to describe someone's habits or manner of working, their method of operating or functioning.  It largely consists of examining the actions used by the individual(s) to execute the crime, prevent its detection and/or facilitate escape.

        The WSJ reported on10/23/2010, "Audit Faulted Cuomo's HUD Overhaul,"  how the Inspector General's audit said Cuomo had impeded investigators examining the program and had asked "the Inspector General's office for the names of HUD employees who spoke with auditors."   The audit said, "HUD chose an overly expensive and controversial solution that exacerbated any existing problem."
       Cuomo's M.O. examples:    1. Now combine the above audit with the missing $59 Billion at HUD which was never accounted for and you see the first known use by Andrew Cuomo of his M.O. with his staff full of sound and fury while covering up a massive $59 Billion theft.  Was this the CuomoTARP's  first use to hide all the scurrying vermin (connected friends of Cuomo) devouring $59 Billion dollars.

    2. "The General Accounting Office (GAO)...in 2000 found that the Department was allowing lenders in the federally-insured mortgage business to engage in fraud and “flipping” that left homebuyers with crumbling houses and unaffordable mortgage payments. The fraudsters would buy property, often in poor neighborhoods, make cosmetic repairs and get puffed up property appraisals based in part on falsified documents attesting that homes had been renovated."    Same M.O., Cuomo's staff full of sound and fury looking out for the poor guy, while the crooks are stealing the poor guys blind.  

    3. And Cuomo repeated this with NY Medicare's 1.2 per year fraud  Same Cuomo M.O., Cuomo's Attorney General's Office full of sound and fury is looking out for the elderly and infirm, while $1.2 Billion dollars per year is gone and not to the elderly and infirm.

    3.  Multiple $50,000 bribes to Senator Sampson and others, while the Cuomo's AG Public Integrity Office blusters.   Same Cuomo M.O.     Senator Sampson walks while Cuomo's Office  talks.

     4. Cuomo's AG Office spouts its toughness on crime, while it bungles a criminal trial and the rich executives walk    Same Cuomo M.O.


      5.  The AEG scandal slips under the sound and fury of Cuomo's Public Integrity Unit.    Cuomo avoids being directly named in Inspector General's report, but the "Victory Celebration" required Cuomo to be in the bag.   The same Cuomo M.O. , but his smoking gun was found.


     6. This whole blog is about Cuomo's cover-ups with his CuomoTARP, while the public is ripped off and abused.    It's the same Cuomo M.O. - Diversionary Sound, Fury and Bluster covering up crimes

   Andrew, your M.O. pattern (execute the crimes, prevent their detection and/or facilitate escape) smells like enterprise corruption, where the enterprise is your public office at HUD or as Attorney General.  
NY Penal Law Article 460 - ENTERPRISE CORRUPTION
460.20 - Enterprise corruption.    460.30 - Enterprise corruption; forfeiture.    460.40 - Enterprise corruption; jurisdiction.    460.50 - Enterprise corruption; prosecution.    460.60 - Enterprise corruption; consent to prosecute.    460.70 - Provisional remedies.     460.80 - Court ordered disclosure.  

    Is R.I.C.O. in your future, Andrew, with a new Governor or with Eric Holder out as US AG?     Imagine, the People can get the loot back from each of you and jail, too.

Next and coming, Cuomo in other RICO Fraud, Cuomo in "Iviewit" Patent Fraud , Cuomo creates a giant liability for NY State.
