Newspaper Article
THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF BESS MYERSON
1988
Overview
By fall, an item appeared in one of the city's tabloids questioning [BESS MYERSON]' employment of [Sukhreet Gabel], given that her mother was the judge in the Capasso case. Then rumors began to surface that Bess had induced Judge Gabel to cut the size of Capasso's temporary alimony and support payments from $1,850 to $680 a week, in return for giving Sukhreet a $19,000 city job as Bess' personal assistant. When Mayor [Ed Koch] asked Bess for an explanation, she sent him a letter of formal assurance that Sukhreet had been hired according to normal employment guidelines. The following spring, Bess forced Sukhreet to resign.
