Weberman’s Lawyer, Farkas, Pleads for Rachmonis on His Client

Nechemya Weberman’s attorney of record is George Farkas, an inventive man who also defended a reputed mob associate last year. According to the NY Daily News, Farkas :

 is asking a judge to go easy on his client – because his tiny Maltese puppy was traumatized during an FBI raid. …A heavily armed FBI special operations team charged through the door of Frank (Frankie Steel) Pontillo’s Staten Island home, tossing concussion grenades inside. “The resulting blast propelled a 4-pound puppy across the room into a wall,” defense lawyer George Farkas states in court papers filed last week in Brooklyn Federal Court. “The little dog has not been the same since.”
