“I am very very relieved to have this behind me,” Gold said as he and his wife Ronnie left the Metro Courthouse hand-in-hand. ‘I’ve had a very very bright and wonderful past. I am looking forward to having the same kind of future.’” ~ Brooklyn District Attorney Eugene Gold (of the widely publicized “Gold Bug” fame for setting up surveillance of Lucchese capo Paul Vario)) after the disgraced D.A. was released on probation for molesting a 10-year old girl during a Conference for District Attorneys in Tennessee in 1983. Gold was 59 years old at the time and charged with aggravated rape.
This one really burns my ass. Gold molested his victim on at least 2 separate occasions. He got out on a 50,000 dollar bond,and upon conviction drew 2 years probation.
The victim's father (another DA) agreed to the sentence to save his daughter the ordeal of a trial.
Can you imagine if this piece of sh#t was prosecuting this case against an ordinary citizen?
I'm sure he would yell and scream about emotional scarring,the taking of innocence,and the danger to society of letting someone like this escape jail time.
The guy would probably be coming up for parole around now.
