Edward (Ted) Harrington
| Former federal prosecutor to whom hitman Joe Barboza dedicated his 1976 autobiography. Appointed to his judgeship by President Ronald Reagan, he was the subject of great controversy in 2002 when he wrote a letter to his fellow judge Joe Tauro asking him to impose a lenient sentence on mobster/FBI agent John “Zip” Connolly, who is now awaiting trial in Florida on murder charges. After an outcry, Harrington withdrew the letter and apologized. |
