Raymond A. Tierney District Attorney | Suffolk County District Attorney's Office

Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney announced the guilty plea of Alan Anderson, a 55-year-old employee of the New York City Administration for Children’s Services. Anderson, who resides in Oakdale, admitted to possessing and submitting 12 forged doctor notes to his employer. This was done in an attempt to avoid work obligations.

The case was a result of collaborative efforts between the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office and the New York City Department of Investigation.

“This conviction demonstrates my office's ongoing commitment to holding accountable public servants who place their own self-interests above those of the people they serve,” stated District Attorney Tierney. “I commend and thank the New York City Department of Investigation for its assistance with this case.”
