The general counsel of a major real estate developer testified at the political corruption trial of former State Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos, a powerful legislator from Nassau County, that he felt he had to channel more money to the senator’s son, Adam, or a contract with Nassau County would not be approved.
Charles Dorego, general counsel for Glenwood Management, said Friday he got a call from Adam Skelos threatening that he and his father would not support the contract if Dorego did not arrange for Adam to get more compensation in his role as a consultant to a company tied to Glenwood.
