Michael Lombardo has had previous legal difficulties. In 2014, he pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud, then-United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut Deirdre M. Daly stated. Lombardo was sentenced to a year in prison for defrauding more than 20 of his investment clients and ordered to pay $191,068.73 in restitution, she said.

Lombardo’s defense, in a 2014 sentencing memo, stated that he was “unlikely to offend again. Up until the above-captioned matter, the defendant did not have a criminal record and has never been incarcerated. While collateral consequences often accompany convictions, Mr. Lombardo’s termination and permanent bar from the financial industry are significant enough to deter Mr. Lombardo from further misconduct.”

He served as a Stamford City Council member from November 2006 to November 2103, his LinkedIn page states. A May 2007 story in The Hour states that he had been arrested for driving under the influence, hitting another vehicle, then fleeing the scene. There is no record of this on the State’s judicial website.
