Cupid is CrAzY

Malik Cupid, an attorney, Democratic Party activist and current aide in New Jersey Governor Jon S. Corzine's administration, was arraigned in Westchester County (New York) Supreme Court yesterday (which also happened to be his 31st birthday) after being charged with stealing $1,400 from his ex-girlfriend's bank account and hacking into her e-mail account while she was serving on active duty with the Army in Iraq. All told, the Westchester County district attorney's office charged Cupid with four felonies, including grand larceny, identity theft and eavesdropping. He faces up to 16 years in state prison.

Caryl Lucas, a spokeswoman for New Jersey's Secretary of State Nina Mitchell Wells, said her office would look into the incident but declined to comment on whether Mr. Cupid would be returning to his State House office and $102,350 salary. If he gets canned, he may be happy . . . given that he commutes from West 150th Street in Manhattan to Trenton each day.

What a touching Valentine's Day story. More here and here.

More:

It looks like Cupid is an Iowa Law grad. Possibly a Colgate undergrad and a basketball player for the Colgate Raiders. If someone can confirm that its the same person, it looks like Cupid didn't leave the team on the best of terms.
