That’s what I thought! Which is pretty horrible. Just goes to show how much corruption there is, because we’re so used to seeing defendants charged with a lot more.

The Soudani’s claim Rosenwasser’s probe resulted in Eman Soudani’s “false arrest and imprisonment,” minimized allegations of abuse, ignored evidence of additional criminal activity and concealed bribes. They claim Hoovler and Borek, who tried the case, exhibited “blind reliance” on Rosenwasser and negligently caused wrongful prosecution.

The Soudani family has made headlines before.

Marty’s wife, Helen, was killed in an unsolved murder at the couple’s Rockland County restaurant in 1977.

His sister, Eman, is accusing him of incest and rape in another lawsuit and claims Rosenwasser, the county and district attorney interfered in a “significant family dispute.”

The Soudani’s plan to sue for $22.5 million.
