Default Mets Employees Indicted

Seems some Mets employees were helping themselves to what little cash was left after paying the players.

Exclamation Mets Bilked In Kickback Scheme

http://www.espn.go.com/mlb/news/2002/1003/1440796.html

More bad news. The Mets were reportedly bilked out of a couple million by this scheme masterminded by a ex lower level executive of the team.

My questions are this:

1. Why, if this was turned over to the DA in 2000, are the charges just occuring now? Or was this a typo?

2. Is Johnny Sack involved, or is he tied up in the Esplanade project in Newark?

Can the Mets prosecute player agents and other GMs who took crass advantage of Steve Phillips?
