KOHUT CALLS ON WATSON TO TAKE A LEAVE OR RESIGN

Haverstraw Village Mayor Michael Kohut released the following statement upon learning of the charges the Rockland County DAโ€™s Office has filed against Village Trustee Tom Watson:

โ€œAlthough I am not fully briefed on the details, I am very troubled by the allegations. I feel bad for Trustee Watsonโ€™s situation, and particularly for his family. He needs to concentrate on his defense and his family at this time.

โ€œI think it is best for everyone concerned that he step aside from his position at the very least, or step down. The village deserves a trustee who can devote themselves fully to their jobs without being consumed with personal issues as serious as this.โ€
