I remember the Sweeney incident well. A local politician was also involved in the cover up. I worked at Willard on the weekends. It was quite the topic of conversation.
Kudos to the Post Star for their persistence re this…it goes to show you the value of good reporters like that. God bless them and may serve as long as possible and especially that there are more who become like them. They are truly inspirational people.
It’s one of the things that I’m really proud about with the new book. I got to tell the stories of so many of our reporters who did such outstanding work over the years. People like Maury Thompson, Thom Randall, Don Lehman, Will Doolittle, Mark Mahoney and many others.

Sweeney also did not talk to the newspaper for years afterward.

I’m so so glad that they’re getting credit for all their hard work!
I heard that Sweeney was going to be the next Saratoga County Republican Chairman. Some things never change.
He was also involved with the Trump campaign at one point.
