TRENTON, N.J. | – A federal judge Monday sentenced the former manager of a Phillipsburg pipe foundry to nearly six years in prison for violating environmental laws and covering up accidents that included the death of a worker crushed by a faulty forklift.
After a daylong hearing, the judge rejected defense arguments that John Prisque, 59, of Bethlehem be sentenced to house arrest so he can take care of his ailing wife and daughter. Instead, U.S. District Judge Mary L. Cooper handed him a 70-month sentence.
Prisque was convicted in 2006 of conspiracy, violating the Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act and obstructing federal safety investigators at the Atlantic States Cast Iron Co. To read the rest of the story click on the link below.
