Joseph Bruno got an early Thanksgiving gift...yes, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals tossed out his conviction on two counts. As expected, following US vs. Skilling , the Circuit Court vacated the convictions " for theft of honest services ".
Mr. Bruno's good fortune will be short lived though; The US Attorneys Office will seek to reconvene a Grand Jury as soon as possible. I believe it will be tougher the second time around to convict.
In the meantime...Gobble, gobble, gobble!
