A WANTAGH MAN with a history of DWI was given a prison term yesterday by an angry judge who waved a photo of the grinning man holding a bottle of Corona beer - taken after he plowed into a tree at 120 mph and killed two passengers. Anthony Raffio, 25, weeping and pleading for mercy, was handed a 2 1/3-to-7-year prison term by Judge Gerald Carter in Nassau County Court. "Only God knows why I was spared and their souls were taken," Raffio told the court after pleading guilty to two counts of manslaughter in the deaths of Matthew Adduci, 29, of Bethpage and Ginamarie Dell'Anno, 23, of Massapequa. "I am a good man. I have a good heart." But the dubious judge said it was hard for him to believe the picture was of a "truly remorseful" man. The photo - which was posted on the Internet sometime after the Oct. 7, 2004, accident - was taken at an Island Park bar. In the photo, Raffio appears tanned and rested. He is holding an open Corona bottle. "You've got Ginamarie and Matthew's lives on your shoulders, and every time you take a drink you despise their memories," the judge added. In a dramatic day in Nassau County Court, tearful family members and friends of the victims told Raffio how he had ruined their lives, too. Adduci and his fiancée, Dorothy Cervera, were to be married in October 2005. "On Oct. 9, 2005, instead of crying tears of joy while walking down the aisle to marry the man I will grow old with," Cervera said, "I cried tears of sorrow - thinking of the life we would never share and the family we would never have." "I still wear my ring, and every time I look at it, it is a bittersweet reminder of what Anthony Raffio took from me and what he took away from Matthew," she said. Gina's mom, Angelica Dell'Anno, described the loss of her daughter, a recent Hofstra graduate: "I miss my daughter so much I can't bear it. I'm wearing the jewelry she had on the night she was crushed to death." She added the pearl necklace will never come off her neck, and her daughter's ring will never come off her finger. Authorities said Raffio and Adduci, who knew each other because they had worked together, were at a Chili's restaurant in Bethpage on Oct. 7, 2004. There they met Dell'Anno, a co-worker of Adduci's at a Long Island accounting firm. Raffio set out in his 2004 Infiniti to take the others home. Speeding southbound on the Wantagh State Parkway, Raffio lost control of his car, slid across the roadway onto a shoulder and struck a tree south of the Merrick Road exit. Raffio, who has a previous DWI arrest in 1999, was drunk at the time, authorities said.
