Who is Joey Gargan?
Gargan was a former CEO of The Pension Company, Inc. who had the temerity to pilfer settlement money funded with taxpayer dollars to cover his own shortfalls.
While in a position of trust, Gargan even embezzled settlement money from a New York City area hospital that was intended to fund a stuctured settlement for a severely injured minor.
He also shortchanged structured settlement brokers who were associated with his firm.
Despite his crimes, Gargan was vouched for by Kenneth Feinberg and is the son of the late Joseph E. Gargan, “best known being a lawyer and cousin of Senator Ted Kennedy, prominently involved in the infamous Chappaquiddick incident of 1969” Source: Biography.com
