Marcus Hook mayor arraigned on corruption, booze, gun charges
Marcus Hook Mayor James D. Schiliro was arraigned Thursday on charges he allegedly had a police officer bring a 20-year-old friend to his home, where he gave the minor alcohol and fired a gun in his house while drunk.
Judge David R. Griffin set bail at $50,000 unsecured for Schiliro, 38, on charges of recklessly endangering another person, unlawful restraint, false imprisonment, furnishing alcohol to a person under 21 years old, and official oppression.
Prosecutor Michael R. Galantino, citing a conflict of interest at the district court level, said the case would be transferred to another court for the preliminary hearing. He had no further comment.
Schiliro, a Republican, was elected to a four-year term as mayor of the Delaware County town in 2009. In November he ran in election for Pennsylvania House District 159 and lost to longtime Democratic incumbent Thaddeus Kirkland.

Another one of bloombergs mayors.
As usual, they scrubbed him from their membership roll...but they left a trail of breadcrumbs:

(18,220 posts)1. Should we await the forthcoming announcement
from MAIG denouncing furnishing alcohol to a minor?
We know they are against illegal guns- his gun must have been legal. I wonder how some of our authoritarians think he should be treated?

You have to wonder how man fleas he's gotten up with.
Authoritarianism makes strange bedfellows.
