Opening statements under way in illegal asbestos removal scheme
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WKTV) - Opening statements got under way Tuesday morning in the case of two Utica men accused of illegally removing asbestos from various locations throughout Central New York.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, Paul and Steven Mancuso worked together to run an illegal asbestos removal company. Paul Mancuso was convicted in 2003 for violating the federal Clean Air Law, so was forbidden to be associated with any asbestos removal operation. Mancuso faces a maximum of 55 years in state prison and fines of more than $2.5 million if convicted on these charges . Steven Mancuso - who is also an attorney - is facing fraud charges relating to the operation of these operations. If convicted, he faces 5 years in prison and a fine of up to a $250,000.
