Le clan Rizzuto est une des principales Ãâë familles Ãâû mafieuses de MontrÃÆéal. Il est dirigÃÆé par Vito Rizzuto, prÃÆésumÃÆé chef de la mafia montrÃÆéalaise, nÃÆé en Sicile en 1946 et immigrÃÆé au Canada avec sa famille en 1954.




Le clan Rizzuto est liÃÆé au groupe Contrera-Caruana, spÃÆécialisÃÆé dans le trafic de stupÃÆéfiants. Il a ÃÆétÃÆé alliÃÆé ÃÆà la famille Cotroni, qui a contrÃÆôlÃÆé la majeure partie du trafic de stupÃÆéfiants ÃÆà MontrÃÆéal dans les annÃÆées 1970 en association avec la famille Bonanno de New York. Les Rizzuto sont considÃÆérÃÆés comme le bras armÃÆé du clan Bonanno ÃÆà MontrÃÆéal, base arriÃÆère de New York, trÃÆès surveillÃÆée par la police fÃÆédÃÆérale amÃÆéricaine, le FBI.




Dans les ann̮̩es 1980, les Rizzuto ont ̮̩merg̮̩ comme famille mafieuse dominante apr̮̬s une guerre entre factions siciliennes et calabraises au cours de laquelle a ̮̩t̮̩ assassin̮̩ Paolo Violi, un lieutenant de la famille new-yorkaise Bonanno.




Selon les autoritÃÆés canadiennes, les Rizzuto ont eu un rÃÆôle-clÃÆé dans l'importation, l'exportation et la distribution de stupÃÆéfiants (marijuana, cocaÃÆïne, hÃÆéroÃÆïne) au Canada et dans toute l'AmÃÆérique du Nord, le blanchiment de centaines de millions de dollars, le jeu illÃÆégal, la fraude, les prÃÆêts usuraires et les extorsions de fonds.




Selon les journalistes Lee Lamothe et Adrian Humphreys, les Rizzuto seraient au dÃÆébut des annÃÆées 2000 la Ãâë sixiÃÆème famille Ãâû, traitant d'ÃÆégal ÃÆà ÃÆégal avec les cinq familles de Cosa Nostra de New York1.




Depuis fin 2009, leur pouvoir est fortement ÃÆébranlÃÆé suite ÃÆà une sÃÆérie d'assassinats de ses principaux membres.

Nick Rizzuto et ses trois lieutenants avaient ÃÆétÃÆé arrÃÆêtÃÆés dans le cadre de l'opÃÆération ColisÃÆée et incarcÃÆérÃÆés ÃÆà la prison de Bordeaux de MontrÃÆéal. En dÃÆécembre 2010, Nick Rizzuto (fils de Vito) a ÃÆétÃÆé abattu en pleine rue ÃÆà MontrÃÆéal.


 




Activit̮̩s internationales


 




En 2007, le clan Rizzuto fait l'objet d'une enquÃÆête internationale pour le blanchiment de plusieurs centaines de millions de narcodollars (environ 600 millions d'euros, soit 900 millions de dollars). Des enquÃÆêtes contre des mafiosi liÃÆés au clan Rizzuto sont en cours en Italie, en Suisse, en France et ÃÆà MontrÃÆéal.


 




Activit̮̩s en Italie


 




Le 23 octobre 2007, la justice italienne a annoncÃÆé l'ÃÆémission de mandats d'arrÃÆêt contre 19 personnes liÃÆées au clan Rizzuto. Une dizaine de personnes sont ÃÆécrouÃÆées en Italie, en Suisse et en France. Plus de 200 policiers italiens ont effectuÃÆé 40 perquisitions et saisi ou bloquÃÆé environ 212 millions de dollars, principalement ÃÆà Rome et ÃÆà Milan.




Deux employ̮̩s de la Banca del Veneto, en Italie, auraient blanchi de l'argent du clan en Suisse et ont ̮̩t̮̩ arr̮̻t̮̩s en octobre 2007.

Meurtrier (tueur ÃÆà gages) nÃÆé ÃÆà Chicoutimi (Saguenay) en 1942. Tueur attitrÃÆé du gang des frÃÆères Dubois pendant 10 ou 12 ans. En juin 1971, il abat Louis Fournier, le propriÃÆétaire du Jan-Lou CafÃÆé et Robert BeauprÃÆé, le gÃÆérant du cafÃÆé parce qu'ils avaient refusÃÆé la protection du clan Dubois. ArrÃÆêtÃÆé ÃÆà New York, il est accusÃÆé de meurtre, mais, ÃÆà la suite de tÃÆémoignages contradictoires, il est acquittÃÆé en 1972. Le 25 juillet 1973, lui et Claude Dubeau agissant sur ordre de Claude Dubois abattent Richard Desormiers et Jacques-AndrÃÆé Bourassa pendant que Yvon Belzile vole l'automobile de DÃÆésormiers. Lavoie assistait aux noces de Michel Dubeau au Quality Inn de la rue Sherbrooke ÃÆà MontrÃÆéal lorsqu'il entendit une conversation entre Claude Dubois et Alain Charron qui discutaient de son assassinat ; il rÃÆéussit ÃÆà s'ÃÆéchapper en se jetant dans la chute ÃÆà linge de l'hÃÆôtel. Lui et Jean Tremblay, dont les Dubois veulent aussi se dÃÆébarrasser, dÃÆécident de lutter contre eux. Le 7 dÃÆécembre 1980, pour financer leur lutte, ils kidnappent le banquier Thomas Prucha, son ÃÆépouse et sa belle-mÃÆère ; pendant que Lavoie garde les deux femmes, Tremblay conduit Pricha ÃÆà sa banque oÃÆù ce dernier retire 135 000 $ qu'il remet aux deux kidnapeurs. Le 23 dÃÆécembre 1980, la police l'arrÃÆête ÃÆà son chalet de Saint-Alphonse-Rodriguez ; il passe NoÃÆël en prison et dÃÆécide de devenir dÃÆélateur pour sauver sa peau. GrÃÆâce ÃÆà son tÃÆémoignage, le clan des frÃÆères Dubois est anÃÆéanti. Il admet avoir tuÃÆé 15 personnes au cours de sa carriÃÆère de tueur, mais on croit qu'il aurait participÃÆé ÃÆà au moins 25 assassinats.

Introduction:


 




Serial killers always make interesting research. Their crimes, methods, and bizarre thought behaviors never cease to amaze us. Sadly, the most interesting cases are typically the ones that baffle authorities and allow the killer to ply his trade unhindered, upping his body count as the days tick by.


 




The name of this case is derived from the Green River, a river that begins in Washington State and empties into the Puget Sound in Seattle. Near the river is the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, built in 1942. As with any international airport, the area around it quickly grew as businesses sprouted to cater to the many travelers who crossed through its gates. One major throughway that runs near the airport is Aurora Avenue.  Just off the Pacific Coast Highway, Aurora Avenue is known casually as the Sea-Tac Strip. This hustle and bustle Strip is a haven of dingy clubs, seedy motels, and of course, many prostitutes. On any given night, hundreds of prostitutes could be seen hanging around the street corners propositioning passerbys as they drove by. When a customer was found and a transaction initiated, they could simply take their tricks to one of the nearby motels or one of the many vacant buildings or empty side streets.


 




The Killings Begin


 




Our story begins on July 15, 1982 when two boys riding their bicycles noticed something in the water that caught their eye. Riding alongside the Peck Bridge near Kent, Washington, the boys found the body of a young woman floating in the Green River.  Kent County police were notified and arrived on the scene to find a 16 year old girl, later identified as Wendy Lee Coffield, with a pair of jeans wrapped tightly around her neck. She had been raped and strangled to death. Wendy, a local prostitute who had been missing for 8 days from a nearby foster home, would soon gain the unfortunate legacy of being the first official victim of the soon-to-be infamous Green River Killer.


 




GreenRiverBridge.gif[/attachment:3o895azg]


 


 




A few weeks later, on August 12, 1982, a worker at a meat packing company, just south of the Peck Bridge, was gassing up his truck when he noticed what he thought was a dead animal floating in the river water. The foam that was circulating around the body is what first drew his attention. He walked over to the body and discovered a young woman, floating dead in the water. Police identified her as 23 year old Deborah Lynn Bonner. Deborah, another known local prostitute, had been missing for over a week.

GreenRiverBodyBag.gif[/attachment:3p6gh4ms]




From this point on the body count grew rapidly. Three days after Deborahâââ‰â¢s body was found, three more bodies were discovered in the area. Two bodies were found, floating face down in the water, by a rafter near the Peck Bridge. When police arrived the rafter told them that just before he spotted the bodies, he had been approached by two men on the river bank. The men had asked him if he had seen anything in the water. When he responded negatively, both men hurriedly left in a pickup truck. Police investigated the scene thoroughly and later in the day they discovered another body in the grass nearby.


 




Police estimated that the two bodies in the water had been there for over a week, while the body found on the bank had been there less than a day. They presumed that the "fresher" body had been left in a hurry, possibly because the killer was spooked by the police when they arrived to investigate the two bodies discovered by the rafter. There were certain distinctive traits surrounding all the killings. The bodies had all been weighted down with rocks in their clothes and also had rocks inserted into body cavities. They had all been strangled, often with articles of their own clothing. Police were certain that the murders were related and were the result of a serial killer.


 




Surmising that a serial killer may be on the loose, the police began researching earlier case records.  After researching their earlier crime records, they discovered two more victims that were attributed to the Green River Killer.  16 year old Leann Wilcox had been found strangled in a field on January 21, 1982 and on July 07, 1982, 36 year old prostitute, Amina Agisheff had been found strangled in a similar manner.


 




Important Traits


 




There was another, more obvious trait about the victims - all of the victims had been prostitutes.  Police began staking out the Strip and casually questioning prostitutes about their activities.  Most of the prostitutes were apprehensive about talking to the police but some did offer some interesting clues.  Many of the prostitutes thought the killer was probably a policeman or someone masquerading as a policeman.  Several told stories of a man brandishing a badge and ordering them into the car.  20 years later, these would become very important clues to the identity of the killer.


 




A profiler was commissioned by the police to assist in the case. The profiler theorized that the killer was probably an organized person since he took the time to properly weight down the bodies before dumping them in the water. The profiler deduced that the killer must be confident since he reused the same location over and over again (although he also theorized that he revisited the same locations in order to relive the murders). He thought the killer must be a longstanding local resident and possibly a fisherman or hunter since he seemed to be familiar with the remote areas where the bodies were being found.  Just as the prostitutes had earlier mentioned, the profiler also thought that the killer had a strong interest in police or detective work.


 




The Killings Continue


 




Meanwhile, prostitutes continued disappearing off of the Strip at an alarming rate.  In October of 1982, Denise Bush lost a coin toss with her pimp and another prostitute, to determine who would go out and retrieve cigarettes from a local store - she was never seen alive again.  Two months later, 18 year old Rebecca Marrero disappeared on the Sea-Tac Strip.  In April of 1983, Sandra Kay Gabbert was last seen by friends, entering a pickup truck on the Strip.  That same night, about 2 hours later after Gabbert's friends noted her entering a pickup truck, Kimi Kai Pastor, a 17-year-old prostitute, was last seen entering a green pickup truck with a camper on it.

The Marie Malvar Killing




MarieMalvar.gif[/attachment:2pilj9lb]


 




In the month of April, the case took an interesting turn. On 04/30/83, Marie Malvar and her pimp were working the Pacific Coast Highway. Marie soon left with a trick in a vehicle, described by her pimp, as a green pickup with a camper on it and a primer patch on the side (possibly blocking out a logo). Curious, the pimp followed them a short distance and noticed that they appeared to be arguing. He attempted to chase the truck down but lost the vehicle in traffic.


 




One week later, he notified the police that Marie had never returned. Fearing that the police would be of little help, he contacted Marieâââ‰â¢s father and the two began looking for Marie on their own. After searching for some time they found a pickup truck that looked like the one the pimp had seen Marie enter. They contacted the police immediately. The police arrived at the home and questioned two men located inside - Dale Wells and Gary Ridgeway. They made a cursory search and found no trace of the woman. The police explained to Marieâââ‰â¢s father that nothing appeared out of the ordinary. Marieâââ‰â¢s father accepted this without question since he was suspicious of the pimpâââ‰â¢s story anyway. Remember this âââ‰â¬Å later weâââ‰â¢ll discover there was much more to the Marie Malvar suspectâââ¬Ã¦


 




In May of 1983 a very important piece of evidence surfaced that if handled properly, could have been the biggest lead in the case - an airport maintenance man was emptying trash when he found a driverâââ‰â¢s license behind some chairs near gate B4 of the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The license belonged to a Marie Malvar. The police were immediately notified but strangely, they never showed up to retrieve the evidence. Two years later it dawned on them that they could check the flight records for that departing gate and possibly even retrieve fingerprints from the license itself. They contacted the airport and were disappointed to discover that the license had already been destroyed and the flight records were no longer available.


 




Still More Victims




GreenRiverBodyRemval.gif[/attachment:2pilj9lb]


 


 




Later in the month of May 1983, a family looking for mushrooms several miles east of the Strip, discovered a womanâââ‰â¢s body. The woman was fully clothed but otherwise displayed some very unusual characteristics. The head was covered with a paper sack, the arms crossed in front of the body, and a fish was draped across the womanâââ‰â¢s throat. She had a bottle gripped tightly in her right hand and freshly ground meat clinched in her left hand. She had a driverâââ‰â¢s license in her pocket that identified her as Carol Ann Christensen.


 




The body was taken to the morgue for a more thorough examination where it was discovered that her bra was on inside out and her shoelaces were untied. They also determined that she had been strangled with a thin cord and the body immersed under water. Since the body was found several miles from the Strip and the conditions of the body were substantially different from the other killings, the police wondered if they had another killer on their hands. This was soon discounted when they tracked down the origin of the sack found on the victimâââ‰â¢s head - the sack was from a 7-11 store located on South 144th Street, a store that lies right in the middle of the Strip and often noted as the location where many of the victimâââ‰â¢s were last seen. It appeared that the killer had begun using another location to dump his victims.


 




Several other victims disappeared in May 1983. Martina Authorlee, 18 years old, was working the Strip when she was picked up by a trick and never seen again. Cheryl Wims, also 18 years old, was picked up at the same spot and never seen again. Tammy Liles, 16 years old, was picked up on the Strip and never returned. Keli Kay McGuiness left the Three Bars motel to work the Strip near 216th Street never to be seen again. And Costance Elizabeth Naon, 20 years old and strangely, the only victim that was not a prostitute, called her boyfriend from the Red Lion bar on the Strip, and told him she would be home in 20 minutes. She never made it back home.


 




Unusual Misses


 




In June of 1983 another bizarre instance occurred. A woman called the police to report a strange smell in the area of Raperâââ‰â¢s Road, a dark alley near the airport. The police investigated and reported that the smell was nothing more than a pile of dead fish. Later that month, players and parents at a little league game near Raperâââ‰â¢s Road, noticed the same foul smell. The smell was bad enough that the games for that day were called off. One month later, a man picking apples in the same area found a skeleton under a pile of brush.


 




The bodyâââ‰â¢s location was near the dividing line between the airport and King County. The two authorities argued about jurisdiction and finally called in a surveyor to determine whose responsibility the body was. The surveyor determined that the body laid in King County and not the Port Authority area. With the jurisdiction question out of the way, the investigation continued which in the end, never resulted in a positive identification of the body. To complicate matters even further, about a month later another skeleton was found in the same location. The second body found near the little league fields was eventually identified and determined to be Shawndra Summers who had disappeared while working the Strip in 1982.

MafiaBoy was the Internet alias of Michael Demon Calce, a high school student from West Island, Quebec, who launched a series of highly publicized denial-of-service attacks in February 2000 against large commercial websites including Yahoo!, Fifa.com, Amazon.com, Dell, Inc., E*TRADE, eBay, and CNN. He also launched a series of failed simultaneous attacks against 9 of the 13 root name servers.


 




Early life




Calce was born in the West Island area of Montreal, Quebec. When he was five, his parents separated and he lived with his mother after she had won a lengthy battle for primary custody. Every second weekend he would stay at his father's condo in Montreal proper. He felt isolated from his friends back home and troubled by the separation of his parents, so his father purchased him his own computer at the age of six. It instantly had a hold on him: âââ¬ÃâI can remember sitting and listening to it beep, gurgle and churn as it processed commands. I remember how the screen lit up in front of my face. There was something intoxicating about the idea of dictating everything the computer did, down to the smallest of functions. The computer gave me, a six year old, a sense of control and command. Nothing else in my world operated that way.


 




Project Rivolta




On February 7, 2000, Calce targeted Yahoo! with a project he named Rivolta, meaning âââ¬Ãâriotâââ¬

Today is Febuary 14:


 




Saint Valentine's Day Massacre:


 




The Saint Valentine's Day massacre is the name given to the 1929 murder of 7 mob associates as part of a prohibition era conflict between two powerful criminal gangs in Chicago: the South Side Italian gang led by Al Capone and the North Side Irish gang led by Bugs Moran. Former members of the Egan's Rats gang were also suspected of having played a significant role in the incident, assisting Capone.


 




History


 




On the morning of Thursday, February 14, 1929, St. Valentine's Day, five members of the North Side Gang, plus gang collaborators Reinhardt H. Schwimmer and John May, were lined up against the rear inside wall of the garage at 2122 North Clark Street, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago's North Side, and executed. The murders were committed by gangsters allegedly hired from outside the city by the Al Capone mob so they would not be recognized by their victims.




Two of the shooters were dressed as uniformed police officers, while the others wore suits, ties, overcoats and hats, according to witnesses who saw the "police" leading the other men at gunpoint out of the garage after the shooting. John May's German Shepherd, Highball, who was leashed to a truck, began howling and barking, attracting the attention of two women who operated boarding houses across the street. One of them, Mrs. Landesman, sensed that something was dreadfully wrong and sent one of her roomers to the garage to see what was upsetting the dog. The man ran out, sickened at the sight. Frank Gusenberg was still alive after the killers left the scene and was rushed to the hospital shortly after police arrived at the scene. When the doctors had Gusenberg stabilized, police tried to question him but when asked who shot him, he replied "Nobody shot me", despite having sustained fourteen bullet wounds. It is believed that the St. Valentine's Day Massacre resulted from a plan devised by members of the Capone gang to eliminate George 'Bugs' Moran due to the rivalry between the two gangs.




George Moran was the boss of the long-established North Side Gang, formerly headed up by Dion O'Banion, who was murdered by four gunmen five years earlier in his flower shop on North State Street. Everyone who had taken command of the North Siders since O'Banion's rule had been murdered, supposedly by various members or associates of the Capone organization. This massacre was allegedly planned by the Capone mob in retaliation for an unsuccessful attempt by Frank Gusenberg and his brother Peter to murder Jack McGurn earlier in the year and for the North Side Gang's complicity in the murders of Pasqualino "Patsy" Lolordo and Antonio "The Scourge" Lombardo âââ‰â¬Å both had been presidents of the Unione Siciliane, the local Mafia, and close associates of Capone. Bugs Moran's muscling in on a Capone-run dog track in the Chicago suburbs, his takeover of several Capone-owned saloons that he insisted were in his territory, and the general rivalry between Moran and Capone for complete control of the lucrative Chicago bootlegging business were probable contributing factors to this incident.




The plan was to lure Bugs Moran to the SMC Cartage warehouse on North Clark Street. Contrary to common belief, this plan did not intend to eliminate the entire North Side gang âââ‰â¬Å just Moran, and perhaps two or three of his lieutenants. It is usually assumed that they were lured to the garage with the promise of a stolen, cut-rate shipment of whiskey, supplied by Detroit's Purple Gang, also associates of Capone's. However, some recent studies dispute this, although there seems to have been hardly any other good reason for so many of the North Siders to be there. One of these theories states that all of the victims (with the exception of John May) were dressed in their best clothes, which would not have been suitable for unloading a large shipment of whiskey crates and driving it away âââ‰â¬Å even though this is how they, and other gangsters, were usually dressed at the time. The Gusenberg brothers were also supposed to drive two empty trucks to Detroit that day to pick up two loads of stolen Canadian whiskey.




On St. Valentine's Day, most of the Moran gang had already arrived at the warehouse by approximately 10:30 AM. However, Moran himself was not there, having left his Parkway Hotel apartment late. As Moran and one of his men, Ted Newberry, approached the rear of the warehouse from a side street they saw the police car pull up. They immediately turned and retraced their steps, going to a nearby coffee shop. On the way, they ran into another gang member, Henry Gusenberg, and warned him away from the place. A fourth gang member, Willie Marks, was also on his way to the garage when he spotted the police car. Ducking into a doorway, he jotted down the license number before leaving the neighborhood.




Capone's lookouts likely mistook one of Moran's men for Moran himself âââ‰â¬Å probably Albert Weinshank, who was the same height and build. That morning the physical similarity between the two men was enhanced by their dress: both happened to be wearing the same color overcoats and hats. Witnesses outside the garage saw a Cadillac sedan pull to a stop in front of the garage. Four men, two dressed in police uniform, emerged and walked inside. The two fake police officers, carrying shotguns, entered the rear portion of the garage and found members of Moran's gang and two gang collaborators, Reinhart Schwimmer and John May, who was fixing one of the trucks.




The two "police officers" then signaled to the pair in civilian clothes who had accompanied them. Two of the killers opened fire with Thompson sub-machine guns, one containing a 20-round box magazine and the other a 50-round drum. They were efficient, spraying their victims left and right, even continuing to fire after all seven had hit the floor. The seven men were ripped apart in the volley, and two shotgun blasts afterward all but obliterated the faces of John May and James Clark, according to the coroner's report.




To give the appearance that everything was under control, the men in street clothes came out with their hands up, prodded by the two uniformed police officers. Inside the garage, the only survivors in the warehouse were Highball, May's German Shepherd, and Frank Gusenberg. Despite fourteen bullet wounds, he was still conscious, but died three hours later, refusing to utter a word about the identities of the killers.


 




Victims




Peter Gusenberg, a frontline enforcer for the Moran organization.




Frank Gusenberg, the brother of Peter Gusenberg and also an enforcer. Frank was still alive when police first arrived on the scene, despite reportedly having fourteen bullets in his body. When questioned by the police about the shooting his only response was "nobody shot me". He died three hours later.




Albert Kachellek (alias "James Clark"), Moran's second-in-command, a retired man at the time, he was not a member of the gang himself but happened to be there at the time the killing happened.




Adam Heyer, the bookkeeper and business manager of the Moran gang.




Reinhart Schwimmer, an optician who had abandoned his practice to gamble on horse racing (unsuccessfully) and associate with the Moran gang. Though Schwimmer called himself an "optometrist" he was actually an optician (an eyeglass fitter) and he had no medical training.




Albert Weinshank, who managed several cleaning and dyeing operations for Moran. His resemblance to Moran, including the clothes he was wearing, is what allegedly set the massacre in motion before Moran actually arrived.




John May, an occasional car mechanic for the Moran gang, though not a gang member himself. May have had two earlier arrests (no convictions) but was attempting to work legally. However, his desperate need of cash, with a wife and seven children, caused him to accept jobs with the Moran gang as a mechanic.


 




Investigation




Since it was common knowledge that Moran was hijacking Capone's Detroit-based liquor shipments, police focused their attention on the Purple Gang. Mug shots of Purple members George Lewis, Eddie Fletcher, Phil Keywell and his younger brother Harry, were picked out by landladies Mrs. Doody and Mrs. Orvidson, who had taken in three men as roomers ten days before the massacre; their rooming houses were directly across the street from the Clark Street garage. Later, these women wavered in their identification, and Fletcher, Lewis, and Harry Keywell were all questioned and cleared by Chicago Police. Nevertheless, the Keywell brothers (and by extension the Purple Gang) would remain ensnared in the massacre case for all time. Many also believed what the killers wanted them to believe âââ‰â¬Å that the police had done it.




On February 22, police were called to the scene of a garage fire on Wood Street where a 1927 Cadillac Sedan was found disassembled and partially burned. It was determined that the car had been used by the killers. The engine number was traced to a Michigan Avenue dealer, who had sold the car to a James Morton of Los Angeles, California. The garage had been rented by a man calling himself Frank Rogers, who gave his address as 1859 West North Avenue âââ‰â¬Å which happened to be the address of the Circus CafÃÆé, operated by Claude Maddox, a former St. Louis gangster with ties to the Capone organization, the Purple Gang, and a St. Louis gang called Egan's Rats. Police could turn up no information about anyone named James Morton or Frank Rogers. But they had a definite lead on one of the killers.




Just minutes before the killings, a truck driver named Elmer Lewis had turned a corner only a block away from 2122 North Clark and sideswiped what he took to be a police car. He told police later that he stopped immediately but was waved away by the uniformed driver, whom he noticed was missing a front tooth. The same description of the car's driver was also given by the president of the Board of Education, H. Wallace Caldwell, who had also witnessed the accident. Police knew that this description could be none other than a former member of Egan's Rats, Fred 'Killer' Burke; Burke and a close companion, James Ray, were well known to wear police uniforms whenever on a robbery spree. Burke was also a fugitive, under indictment for robbery and murder in Ohio. Police also suggested that Joseph Lolordo could have been one of the killers, because of his brother Pasqualino's recent murder by the North Side Gang.




Police then announced that they suspected Capone gunmen John Scalise and Albert Anselmi, as well as Jack McGurn himself, and Frank Rio, a Capone bodyguard. Police eventually charged McGurn and Scalise with the massacre. John Scalise, along with Anselmi and Joseph 'Hop Toad' Giunta, were murdered by Al Capone in May 1929, after Capone learned about their plan to kill him, and before he went to trial. The murder charges against Jack McGurn were finally dropped because of a lack of evidence and he was just charged with a violation of the Mann Act: he took his girlfriend, Louise Rolfe, who was also the main witness against him and became known as the "Blonde Alibi", across state lines to marry.




The case stagnated until December 14, 1929, when the Berrien County, Michigan Sheriff's Department raided the St. Joseph, Michigan bungalow of âââ¬ÃâFrederick Daneâââ¬
