Ponzi king Bernard Madoff’s longtime director of operations was hit with an additional charge of falsifying records in a new indictment handed up yesterday.
Daniel Bonventre, who was busted last month, faces a maximum 82 years in the slammer if convicted on all nine counts, according to authorities.
In addition, the feds want Bonventre, 63, to forfeit an East 79th Street apartment, a beachfront home in Mantoloking, NJ, and a BMW 335i convertible he allegedly bought with money stolen from victims of Madoff’s $65 billion fraud.
Yesterday’s Manhattan federal court filing added Bonventre to a pending case against two former Madoff computer programmers, Jerome O’Hara and George Perez.
All three are accused of conspiring to cover up Madoff’s scheme.
