The complaint alleges that Percoco used his official position as executive deputy secretary to the governor from January 2012 until 2014 and then again in 2015 to seek bribes from executives at companies with business before the state. Those bribes at times came through a third party intermediary and bank accounts and a shell company set up by Todd Howe, a longtime lobbyist who first met both Percoco and Cuomo while working for Cuomo’s father, Mario, during his time as governor in the 1980s. The complaint alleges that Howe arranged for more than $315,000 in bribe payments to go to Percoco and his wife, Lisa Toscano-Percoco, who is not named in the complaint.

Howe is cooperating with prosecutors, according to the complaint.

The complaint involves other players and projects reported for months to be central to Bharara’s investigation, including Ciminelli, a prominent developer who secured work part of Cuomo’s Buffalo Billion program; Steven Aiello, president of Syracuse-based COR Development, a company that won contracts for nanotechnology development upstate; and Peter Galbraith Kelly Jr., who is in charge of external affairs and government relations for Competitive Power Ventures, which is building an Orange County power plant.

And then we get schneiderman.  He's the worst of all- tasked with taking down corruption yet turns a blind eye to that in his regime.  Wait till he's governor it will be payback time.
