from www.timesunion.com – A former longtime Department of Environmental Conservation staffer faces criminal charges for allegedly racking up more than $20,000 in telephone bills by calling sex chat lines during work, state Inspector General Ellen Biben said.
Edward Reilly, 52, of Delmar was accused of making sex chat calls more than 760 times from phones at the DEC headquarters on Broadway in Albany between 2005 and this spring, according to a complaint filed Friday in Albany City Court.
Reilly, an environmental engineer at DEC, resigned his job in August after 28 years of service. His final salary was $88,256.
According to the complaint, Reilly was placed under surveillance at work in April and May 2011 by the DEC Office of Internal Audit and Control.
Biben’s office said the calls, made from phones in Reilly’s fourth-floor office and in conference rooms, totalled more than 500 hours when Reilly was on state work time. Bills came from chat lines including VIP Sensual Chat, VIP Club Sensual Chat, Quest Chat, Secret Encounters, Metrovibe and Local Chat.
Reilly was arraigned before City Court Judge Rachel Kretser on charges of third-degree grand larceny and five counts of offering a false instrument for filing in the first-degree stemming from time sheets he filed during weeks he was using the chat lines. The top charge carries a term of up to seven years in state prison. He was released on his own recognizance.
“The charges allege he not only misappropriated state resources but that he did it while on the taxpayers’ time,” Biben said. “Theft from the state will not be tolerated, and my office will continue to vigorously root out individuals who abuse the public trust.”
