PORTSMOUTH — Geno Marconi will step down as New Hampshire’s director of Ports and Harbors as part of a plea deal to end his criminal prosecution by the state.
The 74-year-old Marconi submitted a notice of intent to plead guilty to a Class A misdemeanor charge of violating the Driver Privacy Act, according to an Oct. 30 filing.Â
Marconi was indicted by a Rockingham County grand jury last October on two Class B felony counts for allegedly tampering with witnesses and informants and falsifying physical evidence, two Class A misdemeanor counts of Driver Privacy Act violations and two Class A misdemeanor charges for allegedly obstructing government administration.
The longtime port director’s negotiated plea outlines a 30-day jail sentence suspended for one year pending good behavior and a $2,000 fine. The remaining five charges will be dismissed in exchange for his resignation.Â
