Someone put up the gallows! Granted they should have been fired. They were apparently smoking something illegal there. They should have been quietly fired, and that's it. These poor guys, who probably made very little money, just happened to get caught at the wrong place at the wrong time, when people are looking for the government to cut costs. What a show! How much did the AG's office spend prosecuting these guys, and how much did that cost? Did Cuomo and the other high-paid people justify their salaries with this? The heads that need to roll are those that have no perspective. Wow, they caught a couple low paid maintenance workers wasting some work time. Someone put up the gallows!
