A former Democrat lawmaker convicted of fraud is now asking taxpayers to restore more than $800,000 in pension benefits, despite a court finding that his crimes were directly tied to his time in office.

David Nangle, who served in the Massachusetts legislature for over two decades, filed an appeal seeking to overturn a decision that stripped him of his taxpayer-funded pension.

The move follows Nangle’s conviction on multiple fraud-related charges.

Only a democrat would make such a lunatic demand.  Republicans don't have cajones big enough to try it.

Is that $806K a total pension accumulation or his expected annual pension?

I still envision a possible DC Pitchfork event in my lifetime.  They are now just sticking it in our eyes for the fun of it.
