Six More Political Officials Wiretapped In Corruption Case To Be Revealed Wednesday UPDATED - Wednesday 5:19 PM)

From Capital Confidential:

Responding to a petition filed by journalists, a federal judge will unseal a document containing the names of nine people who were recorded by ex-Sen. Shirley Huntley, D-Queens.

Huntley pleaded guilty to siphoning money from a non-profit organization toward which steered state funds, and is scheduled to be sentenced Thursday in federal court in Brooklyn. Prosecutors revealed in a filing last week that she was wearing a wire for several months, and in a separate Tuesday filing said their sentencing memo — which will detail the extent of her cooperation — contains the names of eight people under investigations. Six of those people are elected officials.

District Judge Jack Weinstein ordered that the memo be unsealed at 2 p.m. Wednesday. He agreed with members of the courtroom press corps that the public’s right to know outweighed the danger of compromising any ongoing investigations.

Be interesting to see who is in the memo.

UPDATE - And the names are:

State Senator John Sampson
Melvin Lowe, (former political consultant and associate of New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman)
State Senator Eric Adams
State Senator Ruth Hassel-Thompson
State Senator Jose Peralta
State Senator Malcolm Smith
City Councilman Rubin Wills
State Senator Velmanette Montgomery
Curtis Taylor, (former press advisor for Malcolm Smith)

Another DFER in Adams, Montgomery was supported by the UFT.

Remember, no charges have been filed against these people.

But it's never good to get wiretapped, you know?
