John Pinelli, 24. The Buffalo man, suspected of involvement in an armed robbery, was shot execution-style in the back of the head and found on Sept. 29, 1986, in a ditch in the Town of Eden. Two men await trial in the slaying -- reputed local drug dealer Luciano "Dilly" Spataro and William Koopman, a laborer for the City of Buffalo. The murder is believed to have resulted from a dispute with Spataro, Pinelli's father-in-law, who was under investigation by several police agencies.

Quote
Leonard Mordino, an alleged organized crime associate who served time for a 1971 murder, is accused of buying drugs from Peter Giglia, 44, of Fayette Avenue, Town of Tonawanda - identified as the ringleader of the group. Kevin Blakita, 37, of Waverly Avenue, Town of Tonawanda, was accused of helping Giglia sell and deliver cocaine. The cocaine changed hands during meetings at suburban mall food courts, and in the parking lots of restaurants and other business establishments, Assistant U.S. Attorney George C. Burgasser said. "Cocaine remains a very big problem in the suburbs, and this is another indication," Burgasser said.
