PATERSON — A Paterson funeral home manager who engaged in a bad-check scheme to buy drugs was sentenced to 364 days in jail Friday, according to a report.
Sean Scillieri, a 26-year-old Hawthorne High School graduate, told a Passaic County Superior Court judge that his use of Oxycontin while he was a teenager led him to heroin, cocaine and alcohol, The Record reported.
On Feb. 4, 2015, Scillieri, who was the business manager of his family's funeral home, was indicted along with six other men in the scheme, according to Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes.
The men cashed Scillieri Funeral Home business checks at two check-cashing businesses in May, June, July and August 2013, and Scillieri wrote the checks on insufficient funds, the indictment says.
