Convicted Crack Dealer

Now that this news has been brought to her attention they’re scurrying for
cover. Meanwhile, the convicted criminal was sent around door-to-door to
collect signatures for this moronic Democrat.
A City Council candidate who used to work for Mayor de Blasio hired a
registered sex offender — who is also a convicted crack dealer— to go door
-to-door for her to collect the signatures she needs to run for office, The
Post has learned.
Records show Richard Torres pleaded guilty in 2005 to committing a lewd
act on a child in South Carolina — but that didn’t stop Rebecca Lynch from
tapping him this June to visit the homes of unsuspecting Queens families to
gather names for ballot petitions.
“I like the things that she stands for. That’s the reason I got on the
campaign,” said Torres, 41, who spent five years in prison for the crime.
Torres said he collected signatures not for money, but because Lynch
supported a “ban the box” law to forbid employers from questioning job
applicants about their criminal records.
And it’s no wonder — he was also convicted in 1997 of possession with
intent to distribute crack, records show.
Torres described himself as a volunteer for Lynch’s campaign — even
though state records show it paid him $660.
“People that work for her” didn’t ask him about his criminal past, he
noted. And he didn’t bother to volunteer any details, he admitted.
Because that might have hurt his self-esteem, or something. And do’t
registered sex offenders and crack dealers deserve a second, third, or
fourth chance?
Despite pleading guilty to the sex charge, Torres maintained his
innocence when questioned last week by The Post, saying he took a deal only
to avoid a more serious charge that carried a 30-year sentence.
“My wife set me up,” he said. “She said that I did something to her
son. She took him to the hospital, and all the records came back negative.”
The youngster was 6 years old at the time, New York state
records show.
Bitch set him up, as famed crackhead Democrat Marion Barry would have said.
Lynch, 27, a registered lobbyist for the Teamsters union who is backed
by the Working Families Party, began working in de Blasio’s community-
affairs unit in early 2014 and left last month.
She is one of four Democrats running for the Queens council seat vacated
by Mark Weprin.
It appears Torres’ pavement-pounding helped Lynch’s campaign — she
has secured over 1,860 signatures, according to a spokeswoman, easily
surpassing the minimum 450 signatures needed to be on the ballot for the
September primary.
Lynch’s campaign distanced itself from Torres.
“Obviously, we are horrified,” said spokeswoman Sally Frank. “He hasn
’t worked for us in weeks, and neither has the person who hired him.”
Sure they are. Sure. | T*********I
