Sheldon Silver's pension is official: $6,600 a month
ALBANY -- He was convicted and tossed from office, but former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is still getting his pension: $6,602 a month.
Silver's pension comes to $79,224 a year, according to the final calculation from the state Comptroller's Office.
Silver, D-Manhattan, the speaker from 1994 through January 2015, put in for his retirement on Dec. 1 -- just days after he was convicted on corruption charges in federal court.
