Wow, learn something new everyday.

In all the reading I have done on NE I have never come across his name. After a google search it appears he was a major player in CT. One article had him ready to get 23 years, seems harsh, but another looked like 4 years. There was tax evasion involved besides the gambling charges, not sure if that carries a stiffer penalty.

I was surprised that the Boston/Providence family had such a strong guy in New Haven.

Anyone know if he out on the streets again..??
