Pena: Wait 'Til Next Year
DECEMBER 4 -- The case against Domonic Whilby, who caused the death of Bus Operator WIlliam Pena, has been set to begin on January 28th in Manhattan Criminal Court, now that Mr. Whilby has a court-appointed lawyer, who is Mr. Fred Sosinsky of 15 Maiden Lane in Manhattan. In court today, Whilby and Sosinsky met for the first time, with a number of TWU Local 100 officers and rank and file watching in the audience, along with William's widow, Nancy Rodriguez and other members of the Pena family. Both the New York Post and the Daily News sent reporters and photographers. Look for intense coverage once the trial gets underway. When it does, it will be critical to show the strong support of TWU Local 100 in the courtroom.
