Reputed Mobster Punished for Spitting in Officer's Eye

What do you get when you spit right in the eye of a police officer?

Reputed Philly mobster Marty Angelina won't do any hard time but he will be on probation for the next year and a regular at AA meetings.

Angelina spit in a Margate police officer's eye last September after he'd been arrested for disorderly conduct, according to The Press of Atlantic City.

He was an "unwanted guest" at a Margate condo where his girlfriend was staying. When Angelina got down to the police station, he spit at Officer Chris Taroncher.

In court Friday, attorney Michael Pinsky said Angelina regrets what he did.
      
As terms of the probation, Angelina must attend weekly Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous meetings.
      
Neither Angelina nor Pinsky wanted to comment after the sentencing.

The judge in the case said Angelina is believed to be a mob underboss with the La Cosa Nostra crime family.
