Supervisor Sentenced in New York State Capitol "Man Cave" Case
ALBANY, NY (AP) -- A former maintenance supervisor at the Empire State Plaza was sentenced to 5 years probation and ordered to pay $1,500 for goofing off on the job.
Officials say 51-year-old Louis Marciano of Rensselaer and co-worker Gary Pivoda spent workdays in a secret ``man cave'' doing drugs, watching TV and napping.
Marciano, who worked for the state for more than 31 years, resigned under a plea deal reached in November. He had faced up to 7 years in prison on several charges.
His sentencing Monday in Albany County Court came three weeks after Pivoda received a year in jail and was ordered to repay the state for wasted time.
