Political operative Roberto Caldero insisted on publicly telling a federal judge Thursday “at no time in the past or in the future would I be wearing a wire” after his lawyer confirmed Caldero intends to plead guilty in a corruption case involving ex-Ald. Danny Solis (25th).
Caldero made the statement during a hearing after lawyer Anthony Masciopinto and U.S. District Judge Steven Seeger advised against it. Before Caldero spoke, Masciopinto told the judge Caldero is “very concerned about living his life and trying to make a livelihood.”
