02/25/08 - Rendell, Schwarzenegger Team Up
Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell and New York Governor Eliot Spitzer are among 13 governors across the county who have joined the Building America's Future Coalition.
Rendell and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger are co-chairman of the group that wants more federal support to rebuild the country's aging infrastructure. Rendell pointed to experts who say it will take trillions of dollars to repair the nation's crumbling infrastructure. Schwarzenegger adds that the governors are joining together in an effort to force Washington to get serious about rebuilding the nation's infrastructure, because of the affects it has on public safety and the economy.
02/25/08 - Parents of Ex-Bona Student Plead Guilty
The Long Island couple who tried covering up their son's role in the hit-and-run death of a University of Connecticut freshman pleaded guilty today to two misdemeanors. Anthony C. and Donna Alvino were charged with tampering with evidence and hindering prosecution. They were each fined $2,000 and were required to pay an additional $330 in court costs. Prosecutors did not seek jail for the couple. The Alvinos' son, former St. Bonaventure University student, 19-year-old Anthony P. Alvino, was sentenced January 23 to 37 months in prison for driving the S-U-V that hit Carlee Wines on the UConn campus in January of 2007. She died three days later.
