The former top lawyer for the state Thruway workers union was sentenced yesterday to 2 2/3 to 8 years in prison for stealing $184,000 from the union.

Kevin Clor, 34, apologized at his Manhattan State Supreme Court sentencing yesterday, saying, “Nobody made me do what I did.”

Clor pleaded guilty in June to grand larceny for ripping off the union that represents more than 2,500 Thruway Authority workers.
