What do you guys know about the Bertuca family in Chicago? I saw old Coconante mentioned them on ANP in connection with Albie - the real connection with the family is Bobby Dominic, who used one of the Bertucas (who was a cop at the time) as his personal muscle:

As you can see - the Grand Avenue Crew was robbing drug couriers and stash houses under the guise of being cops (and using real cops) as far back as the late 80s.

Bertuca was a former professional boxer and after he left the CPD under clout, he joined the IL State Troopers. He passed away, but his kids and grand kids still hold clout - a few work for the City of Chicago.

Another left his job following Cooley's allegations that he was working for Pat Marcy, is now the City Attorney for Berwyn:
