Bradley Guilty of Domestic Abuse Charges

White Plains Mayor Adam BradleyA judge has found White Plains Mayor Adam Bradley guilty of  several charges  in connection with the domestic abuse case involving his wife Fumiko.

Judge Susan Capeci rendered her decision this morning, finding Bradley guilty of harassment, attempted assault and second degree criminal contempt charges, but innocent of several others.

Bradley was in court for today's verdict. He had opted for a bench trial rather than a jury trial.

The first incident occurred at their home on Fernwood Road in white plains on January 11, when Fumiko Bradley said her husband became enranged and threw a mug of hot jasmine tea on her chest.

The second incident occurred on February 28, 2010, also at the Bradley home, when the Mayor grabbed his wife's left arm and placed it against a door frame and bruised her left hand.

Bradley to Have Bench Trial

White Plains Mayor Adam BradleyIt was a date in court today for White Plains Mayor Adam Bradley who is facing several charges of misdemeanor assault, harassment and witness tampering charges in the alleged domestic abuse of his wife, Fumiko.

Bradley waived his right to a jury trial which means his case will be heard by a judge. Westchester County Judge Susan Capeci set November 8 as the start date for what's expected to be a two day bench trial for the embattled White Plains Mayor.

Bradley's attorney said a bench trial was preferable because it would be both quicker and less complex. Attorney Luis Andrew Penichet said such a trial would involve translaters since Bradley's wife Fumiko is Japanese, and does not speak English well.
