Daniel Pelosi in solitary again

Daniel Pelosi, the former electrician who is serving a 28-years-to-life sentence in prison for the 2004 beating death of an East Hampton financier, is in trouble again.

For nearly two months, Pelosi has been back in solitary confinement at Southport Correctional Facility in upstate Pine City - this time after making threatening phone calls to an unidentified woman on Nov. 26, according to the state Department of Corrections.

An inmate misbehavior form says the woman contacted the Elmira Correctional Facility to report that Pelosi left a voice mail on her cell phone threatening her and telling her "this is the last vacation you'll ever take" and "I'm sending some people over to your home."

Pelosi, 47, admitted to authorities he made the phone call, according to the report. As a result, Pelosi was sentenced to a year in disciplinary confinement for 23 hours a day and is no longer allowed to make calls or send or receive packages. Also, his commissary purchase privileges were revoked, a corrections official said.

This isn't the first time Pelosi, formerly of Manorville, has been placed in solitary or faced discipline. He was already in confinement as of Nov. 23 for disobeying a direct order from a correction officer, according to documents. He served three days in solitary, calling the woman on the last day, records show.

Correction spokeswoman Linda Foglia said details of the Nov. 23 incident could not be disclosed due to privacy rules.

Pelosi was placed in solitary confinement for 50 days in September 2005, a little more than three months after he was first incarcerated, after a correction officer witnessed his inappropriate conduct in the visiting area of the Clinton Correctional Facility in upstate New York, records show. In August 2008, he was placed in solitary confinement for six months for using other inmates' PINs to place unauthorized phone calls, records show, and in May 2009 he served 30 days in confinement again for phone misuse.

Pelosi was convicted of the 2001 murder of Theodore Ammon in December 2004. Ammon's divorce from his wife, Generosa, who was having an affair with Pelosi, was days from being finalized in 2001 when Ammon was found dead. Pelosi married her several months later.

Generosa, who inherited Ammon's estate as his widow, died in August 2003 of breast cancer but not before giving Pelosi $2 million for his legal defense and $700,000 from a postnuptial agreement. She left nothing for him from her $33-million estate. Pelosi married his third wife, Jennifer Zolnowski, in prison.

Pelosi attorney Richard Mischel said Tuesday that he will file an appeal to overturn Pelosi's conviction. Mischel declined to comment on the confinement.
