Galante was on parole from 1974-1978 when it was revoked for consorting with known felons, the revocation was overturned by a judge in February of '79, he was killed later that July. Perhaps it's from the time his case was under appeal, that's why he's standing a cop? Maybe the guy is a lawyer?

Galante would have been 65 to 69 years-old in that time period, he looks that age here.
