Darin Blackburn

Laura Italiano of the NY Post reports, "A sticky-fingered Upper West Side bartender will be serving probation instead of drinks after pleading guilty yesterday to illegally charging $31,793.99 to the credit card of a famous customer - sax man David Sanborn.
Darin Blackburn, 40, had been a fixture behind the bar at Nick & Toni's Cafe on West 67th Street.
For a year and a half, the mixologist would be secretly delighted when Sanborn and other customers paid in cash. He'd pocket the money, then charge the tab to Sanborn's American Express card, which the restaurant kept on file."

Richard Dienst

Richard Dienst, 68 was charged with sexual abuse, forcible touching and harassment for the two alleged incidents inside his office at the Woolworth Building, where he is accused of putting the woman's hands on his crotch. He is seen leaving the back door of 100 Centre Street where a car was waiting for him after his arraignment and then sped away. The NY Post reports, "Court papers say Dienst was far more verbal on March 21, when he allegedly accosted a lawyer inside his office and placed his hands on her breasts. "I just want to see how great your tits look," the criminal complaint quotes him as saying. "I just want to feel how great your tits feel."" He then put his hand down the back of her pants and put her hand on his crotch, saying, "Look what you did to an old man. You made an old man's weekend," the complaint says.

Tenzing Bhutia

According to the NY Post, " He drank enough Sam Adams beer to hike his blood-alcohol level to twice the legal limit. Then he plowed his dad's new Mercedes into a beautiful, 24-year-old Scottish woman on The Bowery and sped away - home to bed - as she died in the street. For this, a 21-year-old finance major named Tenzing Bhutia was promised a two-year prison term yesterday. Bhutia was even allowed to remain free until his June 19 sentencing - that way, he'll get to finish his degree at Baruch College. "I put the blame for my daughter's death squarely in the hands of the US justice system," Bill Thomson said of the case involving his tragic only daughter, Julia, who died of massive head injuries in the predawn mow-down last September. "Driving under the influence is generally dealt with by a slap on the wrist as a first offense, so it fails to act as a deterrent," the grieving father told the Edinburgh Evening News in Scotland after learning of the sentence."

Tricia Walsh-Smith

Dareh Gregorian of the NY Post reports, "The peeved playwright who's been venting on YouTube about her ugly divorce from Shubert Organization head Philip Smith was in court yesterday, where she claimed she's now broke. "I've got no money," Tricia Walsh-Smith said outside of Manhattan Supreme Court. "I'm $150,000 in debt."" Her third and latest YouTube video can be seen here.

Jack Jordan

NY Post columnist Andrea Peyser writes, "Persistent sicko Jack Jordan, who ran a two-year campaign of love and terror against actress Uma Thurman, was convicted yesterday of stalking and aggravated harassment - but cleared of two additional counts of aggravated harassment." Jordan was handcuffed and taken from the court and sent to Rikers Island to await sentencing. He's seen for the last time entering court, moments before the jury's decesion.

Jack Jordan

Jack Jordan, "Uma Thurman's creepy stalker took the stand this morning and tried to explain away his sick letters as just an act of creative writing. Maryland-resident Jack Jordan, who faces up to a year in jail on misdemeanor stalking and aggravated harassment charges, said his bizarre missives to the "Kill Bill" star that described visions of an aborted fetus and drawings of razor blade meant no harm. Instead, he said they were examples of stream of conscious writing - the same technique that Quentin Tarantino used to write his films that starred Thurman like "Kill Bill" and "Pulp Fiction."", according to Laura Italiano in this afternoon's NY Post web page story.
