The Greek & the Polekatz establishment belong to the Chinatown people if I'm not mistaken. That place is a shady & seedy as it gets.

Mandell is connected to Grand Ave Crew, he grew up in the Patch with many of those fellas & was a cop on their payroll for quite a while. He is well liked by those guys but is looked at as a nut that should be kept at arm's length. But this recent scheme just seems like something he was doing on his own time.
