New indictments have been handed down to John Dougherty, former business manager for IBEW Local 98 and his nephew, Gregory Fiocca, former shop steward for the same local. On March 3rd, each was indicted for one count of conspiracy to commit extortion and 18 counts of extortion.
These charges are separate from those brought on by the FBI in 2019 against Dougherty and seven others involved in the embezzlement, wire fraud, and bribery allegations associated with the Electrical Workers and their dealings.
