Comisar used the money on gambling, hotels, food and other personal expenses, authorities said. While he was awaiting sentencing in that case, Comisar tried to extort an attorney for more than $50,000 with lies that he had information that could exonerate her brother, a convicted murderer who killed a government informant. No attorney is listed in court records for Comisar, and an initial court date has not yet been set. Court records say he was arrested in California.
