What's amazing about that??
Many (if not most) rich people are greedy. Unfortunately I find the
exceptions far more amazing.

Wife of Monkee Micky Dolenz arrested in NYC

NEW YORK – The wife of Monkees vocalist Micky Dolenz was arrested
Friday on charges that she defrauded an affordable housing program in
New York City.

Authorities in the city's Department of Investigation said Donna
Quinter, 54, illegally received $136,866 in government rental
subsidies for an apartment on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

Quote:

The subsidies were supposed to go to middle-income families living in
the city year-round who were in danger of being forced out by
gentrification.

Investigators say Quinter failed to disclose that she was sharing the
apartment with a friend who paid rent. The home also wasn't her only
residence. Since marrying Dolenz in 2002, the former flight attendant
has lived with her husband in Bell Canyon, Calif., an exclusive gated
community outside Los Angeles.

Quinter surrendered to authorities in New York on Friday morning. She
was expected to be arraigned later on larceny charges in a Manhattan
court.

Her lawyer, Bridget Rohde, didn't immediately return a phone message.

New York City has a number of programs designed to allow middle class
families to pay reduced rents in homes they have occupied for a long
period of time.

Fraud, however, is common. In some cases, people hold on to their
apartments even after they have moved out of the city, either using
them as vacation homes or secretly renting them out.

The Department of Investigation, a city law enforcement agency that
probes fraud and other abuses in government programs and agencies,
discovered Quinter's eligibility problems after it began examining who
was getting subsidies in her building in 2008.

"Law abiding New Yorkers struggling to pay their rents and mortgages
cannot afford to subsidize cheaters who abuse public housing resources
to support privileged lifestyles," the department's commissioner, Rose
Gill Hearn, said in a written statement.

Dolenz isn't accused of any wrongdoing.
