Casa-Di-Pizza owner Joseph
Jacobbi could have been sent to prison after pleading guilty to third-degree
grand larceny. But The Buffalo News reports a state Supreme Court judge thought
the city would be better served if Jacobbi fed its neediest.
He sentenced
Jacobbi to deliver 12 sheet pizzas from his popular restaurant to the City
Mission once a week for a year. The 57-year-old Jacobbi has repaid about half
of the $104,000 in sales tax authorities say he withheld from New York over the
course of four years.
He must make monthly payments to cover the rest. He declined
to comment after his sentencing Monday.
