I dunno if we can attribute the Mandell situation to "Grand Ave goings on". Seems like a crazy loose cannon Jew who grew up with those guys & liked to toss names around. I won't doubt that Mandell has probably done lots of dirt with that crew, no doubt they took advantage of him when he was on the force but as far as this recent turn of events is concerned, it's pretty obvious to me that it was just something Mandell personally had going on.
