StumbleBrief: Former policeman nominated for black book
Tuesday, Nov. 3, 1998 | 2:32 a.m.
Pascente, 56, plead guilty to mail fraud in 1995, and served 20 months in federal prison. According to his plea agreement, Pascente conspired with others to defraud State Farm Insurance of $60,000. After splitting the proceeds, Pascente ended up with $20,000.
Other charges against Pascente were dropped in exchange for his cooperation. A $235,000 fine was dropped due to Pascente's "inability to pay."
A 1997 Chicago Crime Commission report listed Pascente as a business associate of the Chicago Mob.
Officials say Pascente visits Nevada casinos from time to time.
