On November 17, Angel Luis Garcia, former financial secretary of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1614, was sentenced in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey to a year of home confinement, plus three years of supervised release, for embezzling around $117,000 from the union, based in Dover (Morris County), N.J. He also was ordered to pay $119,021 in restitution and a $100 special assessment. Garcia had pleaded guilty this June after being charged in December 2019. The actions follow an investigation by the U.S. Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards.
