Before sentencing former Niles Mayor Ralph Infante to 10 years in prison Friday on 22 convictions, visiting Judge Patricia Cosgrove said Infante’s crimes hurt that city and “gutted” the public’s trust in its officials. “What you have done is taken the public trust and just gutted it, just gutted it for your own personal, financial gain,” she said with Infante standing before her in an orange Trumbull County jail jumpsuit. She called his misdeeds “two decades of public corruption.”
