charges in an indictment returned last week. He told reporters he entered the
plea because he was ”unequivocally not guilty.”
The longtime co-host of WFAN’s ”Boomer and Carton” show was arrested in September on charges that he misappropriated at least $5.6 million from two
investors in a ticket reselling business designed to raise millions of dollars
so he could pay off gambling debts. Free on $500

He said prosecutors were wrong to say that a concert ticket reselling business was a scam. He said the business was licensed by the state of New York
and that he bought and sold thousands of tickets and had deals in place to buy
and sell many more tickets.
Carton also said the government told his lawyers about 10 days ago that he had a legitimate ticket selling business and that he’d been selling tickets for
a long time.
”Unfortunately, the damage caused by the government’s false accusations cannot be undone

that the truth sees the light of day. I fully intend to see this all the way to
a not guilty verdict from a jury of my peers.”
A spokesman for the government declined to comment on Carton’s remarks.
