State Comptroller blasts city over delinquent loans audit
The audit accuses the city’s CDO of undercounting delinquent loans and failing to verify job creation. It cites lack of communication with the council, weak notices, poor collateral collection, and an overstated loan receivable. Twenty-six loans totaling over 1.5 million aimed for 106 jobs. 13 with over 44 promised jobs did not pay, and two companies filed for bankruptcy. Officials acknowledge issues and discuss reforms including potential CDO restructuring and a corrective action plan for state review.

Shore drowning case details injuries and timeline at trial
The testimony centered on Shore's cause of death not matching accidental drowning and possible pre death injuries. Witnesses described the location as calm with few rocks, and medical notes indicated injuries while blood flow suggested blunt force. Szatanek claimed a 40 minute encounter with Shore, while toxicology showed only low THC. The defense noted possible postmortem injuries or drug impairment, and DNA testing raised questions about evidence collection at the Oswego County Courthouse.
