Manhattan Assemblywoman Pleads Guilty to False Statement Charges,

resigns seat..

A Manhattan assemblywoman pleaded guilty in federal court Friday to two charges of making false statements and resigned her seat as a result.

Gabriela Rosa, 47, pleaded guilty to lying to immigration authorities about her marital relationship in 2005.

Prosecutors say while she was in a relationship with someone, she married someone else who could provide her with immigration papers.

She also pleaded guilty to making false statements in a bankruptcy petition in 2009, failing to include her second husband's income in bankruptcy proceedings.

Rosa stressed that her charges are not public corruption.

Used to be that the Moreland Commission was.

But Gov Cuomo says we don't NEED that anymore.

Who knew.
