Disgraced former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver has worn out his appeals \u2014 Hallelujah! <\/p>\n

The US Supreme Court on Monday said it won\u2019t hear his final effort to escape his conviction for accepting bribes (nearly $4 million worth), money-laundering, extortion and other crimes.<\/p>\n

That means Silver, 76, will stay exactly where he belongs: behind bars at Otisville Correctional Facility. <\/p>\n

Good, because it took far too long to get him there. He got his first conviction, back in November 2015, tossed on appeal in 2017. <\/p>\n

After his second set of guilty verdicts in May 2018, he remained free while pursuing more appeals. He didn\u2019t actually report to Otisville until last August. <\/p>\n

And he\u2019s still <\/em>collecting a $6,600-a-month pension courtesy of New York taxpayers.<\/p>\n

Silver is sentenced to 6 1\/2 years and with good behavior will probably be released early. It\u2019s the minimum justice he richly deserves.\n <\/div>\n
