Spring Valley Firefighter Accused of Stealing Thousands of Dollars from Two Departments

July 26, 2021 by helpdesk1

A Spring Valley Volunteer Firefighter has been accused of stealing thousands of dollars from the two departments he worked for. Rockland’s D-A says Christopher Nau, the Treasurer for the Columbian Engine Company and Assistant Treasurer for the Spring Valley Fire Department, was indicted on several counts, including Grand Larceny and Attempted Grand Larceny. He is accused of taking nearly $38-thousand, but the D-A says donations for 35 year-old volunteer firefighter Jared Lloyd, who died in March at an adult home blaze, were untouched. Nau was removed from both treasurer positions and suspended in August last year. He was arraigned last week and released on his own recognizance. He is due back in court August 11th.

Local assemblyman Colin Schmitt says the Biden administration is letting New York Governor Andrew Cuomo off the hook, and called it “disturbing and highly suspect”…

The investigation by federal prosecutors in Brooklyn and several others are reportedly ongoing. According to the Albany Times-Union it is one of at least five separate continuing investigations of the Cuomo administration. There’s the sexual harassment investigation; his $5 million book deal; his administration’s data reporting on nursing home policies; and alleged preferential COVID testing for his family members and others.
