Ex-City Tax Official Is Convicted in Sting
The former deputy tax assessor in Providence, R.I., was convicted in the FBI-dubbed “Operation Plunder Dome” scandal in which bribes were accepted for lower property taxes at City Hall. “Can you believe that?” a crying Rosemary Glancy asked family members after the verdict. The jury found Glancy, 47, guilty on all seven counts, including attempted extortion and mail fraud.

The FBI, which amassed more than 100 secretly recorded conversations on video and audio tapes, said its investigation is continuing.
