Former Top Aide To Gov. Paterson Surrenders To Authorities
A top aide to Governor David Paterson surrendered to Bronx prosecutors Thursday. He’s now facing misdemeanor assault charges stemming from a domestic violence case that tanked his boss’ political career.

Our resident legal adviser, Paul DerOhannesian, joined Liz Benjamin Thursday to review the case.
