Charges dropped against men in dead pal check-cashing scheme

The dimwitted duo busted in the "Weekend at Bernie's" stunt of rolling a dead friend through Hell's Kitchen to cash his last Social Security check were cleared Tuesday of all charges.

 

After hearing the news, defendant David Daloia insisted Virgilio Cintron was alive during his last ride along Ninth Ave. - and then admitted lugging a comatose Cintron to cash another check just days earlier.

 

"He had been comatose for days upon days," said the 65-year-old ex-construction worker. "I carried him down the stairs a week before."

The last caper goes wrong! What a hilarious story. Who really knows how long that poor guy was dead for.
