Sellinger

Menendez, according to the indictment, then badgered both Sellinger and the prosecutor who had been put in charge of Daibes case, calling them several times.

NEWARK, N.J. – A former investment advisor who stole over $600,000 from his clients to fund his gambling and personal expenses has pleaded guilty, U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger announced today.

Some of those checks were made out to Teixeira’s relatives while others went directly to the conspirator, but Sellinger said Teixeira never reported the earnings to the IRS.

According to U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger, documents filed in this case and statements made in court, Penta is a New Jersey-based company run by Volpe and his family.

Philip R. Sellinger, New Jersey’s top federal prosecutor, was called to the witness stand on Wednesday to testify in the bribery trial of Senator Robert Menendez, his onetime close friend, fund-raiser and political ally.

Sellinger also walked, and Kuczik followed with a RBI single.

Sellinger’s departure is not just a loss of a figurehead but a stark reminder of the deepening rot within New Jersey’s federal legal system.

Sellinger said she got involved in the organization after her husband’s drill sergeant died by suicide two years ago.
