Mistress Sues County Over Tryst Print
Wednesday, July 18 2012

A Massapequa, NY, woman has filed a notice of intent to sue Nassau County (NY) for $10 million dollars, alleging it failed to supervise a married police officer who spent "over 100 nights" with her while on-duty.

According to news reports, Tara Obenauer had a seven month affair with Nassau County cop Mike Tedesco.  The affair ended when one of Obenauer's neighbors reported that a police car was constantly parked in Obenauer's driveway.  GPS records confirm the car in question visited the address 57 times.  An internal affairs investigation ensued and Tedesco retired without permission from the police commissioner.

Obenauer now claims to have "suffered severe ... emotional and psychological damages" and is "too scared to leave her house fearing that Tedesco [the officer involved] or other officers may retaliate against her." 

An attorney for Obenauer says, "Her reputation has been completely tarnished."
