Mississippi Burning

In 1998, Samuel K. Bowers, the imperial wizard of a Mississippi KKK faction, was found guilty in the Dahmer firebombing murder 26 The FBI later attributed nine murders and three hundred beatings, arsons, and bombings to Bowers's klavern, or local unit, of the Ku Klux klan’s White Knights. He had previously served six years for the Goodman, Schwerner, and Chaney killings, which were executed by the same Klan cell. Edgar Ray Killen, who was the actual ringleader in the MISSBURN murders, escaped conviction in 1967 after an all-white jury deadlocked.

But in 2005, when new evidence was developed he was found guilty of manslaughter. At the age of eighty, Killen was sentenced to sixty years in prison.

Then, in February 2009, Killen filed suit against the FBI, arguing that his civil rights had been violated-because of the Bureau's use of Gregory Scarpa Sr., a Mafia killer, in solving the Goodman, Schwerner, and Chaney kidnap-murders.

"The information that Scarpa obtained by use of torture violates Killen's civil rights [his right to due process ... [and] the right to confront witnesses," his lawyer said.

One former DEA special agent, Mike Levine, was astonished by Hoover's decision to enlist a known Mafia strongman to further the cause of justice. "Here the FBI uses a member of a violent society-La Cosa secret Nostra—to travel down to Mississippi on multiple missions to torture confessions out of two guys who were also members of a violent secret s the Klan. Since when does the federal government have to stoop to levels like that to make cases?
This was during the same era when the CIA was trying to get mob guys to kill Castro."

As Levine notes, such behavior on the Feds' part was roundly denounced during congressional hearings in the 1970s and the popular assumption was that it stopped. "But the fact that the Bureau continued to use a multiple murderer like Scarpa right up into the early 1990s," says Levine, "just proves that it didn't." …

In a Buffalo News Article of 2/2/89, Michael Beebe, reveals Local 210 member Ron Fino worked for the CIA from 1965 – 1969 as a SUNY at Buffalo student informer to infiltrate the Students for a Democratic Society. Ron’s father Joe was mob capo. The CIA recruited students as part of Operation Chaos, an unauthorized domestic spying op in the late 1960’s.
In the article Fino said “he was feeding it (CIA) information on Students for a Democratic Society” who were organizing anti-Vietnam War protests. Curiously enough, scores of SDS swallowed-up on-campus LSD and many went from pragmatic left-wing radicals to wide-eyed, soul searching, fringed avatars.

Note: Millions of dollars of CIA research grants were paid to professors and psychological researchers at Universities across the U.S to experiment with psychedelic drugs (See ABC News Closeup: Mission Mind Control, 1/30/79 transcripts pg 6, 25 & 34, Item #30)

Incidentally, in the same Buffalo News Article Fino said he used his Mafia connections to help the CIA look for possible mob connections in the John F. Kennedy assassination

After his stint with the CIA Fino becomes an informer for the FBI in 1972 at age 24 while taking over Local 210. As described above (at 2/27/85) Fino later got in hot water when the Buffalo News revealed a fraudulent minority front company he was involved in-the Onyx Construction and Equipment Co. Fino now says it was a government sting set up in 1978 aimed at former mob boss Sam Pieri.

Note: U.S Attorney Richard D. Kaufman (who I have worked with on these investigations since 1985) remarked to me that when Fino started singing to the press he was in hot water in a criminal proceeding.

Was Fino using the press to gain leverage for leniency in the criminal case by coming forward to say he worked for the CIA during the late 1960’s at UB?

What else does he know that the CIA did not want him to reveal?

Most likely it had to do with the Mafia-CIA links in Mk-Ultra that even Fino did not know the depths of-that I had uncovered.

Buffalo's Unraveling Nexus of OC, CIA, FBI & Nazi-type Experiments
May 29, 2009 at 6:09am
By William G. Iannaccone.
NLG Buffalo Chapter

Like the 1937 founders of the National Lawyers Guild I'd like to carry on in the tradition of an antifascist ethos, born of personal experience.

"Son, there are things that people made me do. I don't have the heart to tell you. I want to leave you these papers. You're going to have to figure it out for your self. No one is going to help you. This way I'll know you'll be alright."

My mother spoke these words of wisdom as she handed me a file box brimming with documents giving me clues to my own family's once hidden past, before her passing in 1978.

The pieces of the puzzle fell neatly in place to reveal a clarion scenario. After years of investigation and pro se litigation I'd gathered the evidence and family testimonials to prove my father, a WWII veteran, and my self, were unwitting victims of the CIA's MK-ULTRA behavioral science program.

Buffalo, N.Y, hometown of OSS veteran "Wild Bill" Donovan, I found to be a city steeped in a mysterious unraveling nexus of organized crime; CIA; FBI, and Nazi-type experimenters.

In the book "Hide In Plain Sight," Leslie Waller chronicles the court cases of Thomas Leonard of Buffalo who ran into a legal brick wall in efforts to contact his children, who along with his estranged wife and hoodlum lover Paddy Calabrese went into hiding from November 1967 to July 1975 in Pres. Richard M. Nixon's premier witness protection program: Like Leonard, I too ran into legal road-blocks to thwart my cause for truth and justice.

The witness protection program was hatched out of Buffalo's and the nation's first OC Strike Force. Two men in Justice put the pilot Strike Force idea together and sold it to Attorney Gen. Ramsey Clark (1967-69): (1) Robert Dolan Peloquin a veteran of the "Hoffa Squad" and (2) Henry Peterson who was later caught in the Watergate squeeze. The FBI refused to assign personnel or open their files to the Strike Force (Waller 131-32).

On Feb. 27, 1967, in the N.Y. Chautauqua County Jail, Paddy Calabrese reportedly started singing to John J. Honan, Asst. Erie Co. DA and Buffalo PO Samuel N. Giambrone, providing the inside scoop on the Magaddino empire (Waller 141).

Waller writes the Buffalo Strike Force was advised by "elements within the Justice Department…One (of whom) who'd been in OSS and the CIA," wanted Calabrese in deep cover in a small Michigan town. Joe Fino, mob capo, had reportedly told Giambrone to keep Calabrese off the streets of Buffalo (Waller 187).

On May 8, 1967 – FBI raided Snowball's at Hamphire and Grant. Thirty-six were taken into custody for consorting with known criminals, including Natarelli, Randaccio and Stevie Cino.

The next morning all charges were dismissed. End of Episode. Beginning of speculation. What was the FBI doing, staging a raid it knew would end in dismissal?

Waller says Giambrone would not speculate about the mysterious FBI raid anymore than why Hoover was soft on the mob. (Waller 162-63).

In 1968 Magaddino and six associates were indicted on charges of gambling and racketeering. The Funeral Chapel in Niagara Falls was bugged by the FBI from 1962-65. Judge John O. Henderson ruled against the government. He told the FBI in May 1973 unless they produce untainted evidence the case would be dismissed. The FBI did not. Henderson threw out the indictments and was upheld by the USCA 2nd Circuit on May 8, 1974.

Six days later the U.S. Supreme Court freed thousands of OC figures indicted and found guilty of narcotics charges on grounds of tainted evidence.

Attorney Gen. John N. Mitchell had broken the law by not personally signing authorizations for wire-taps of evidence leading to the convictions. Waller pens, "Whether that was deliberate or accidental oversight is not known to this day" (Waller 254).

Italian authorities report from 1950 -60 Magaddino headed a ring that brought heroin from Italy and to Canada and Eastern US, bringing in 150 million a year (Waller 254).

Calabrese moved to Reno, Nevada in 1969 and stayed till 1974 visiting Buffalo three or four times during that time. Tom Leonard who was closest to the action is quoted, by Waller, as saying "You see what a lie this all was? The government claiming their lives were in danger and them going back and forth to Buffalo?" Waller concedes, "The question was inescapable was Paddy in danger or wasn't he?" (Waller 263-66).

Waller concludes: "There is a vast and growing overlap between the activities of all our intelligence organizations and the activities of organized crime. Frequently, as in the Bay of Pigs affair, the personnel are identical. The same agents serve two masters and are later recycled as hit men against Castro's person… As the Watergate currency, laundering indicates, not only does organized crime make cash contributions to the law establishment, but the establishment also tethers to organized crime" (Waller 275-78).

In a Buffalo News article on Feb. 2, 1989, by Michael Beebe, it was first reported that Local 210 member Ron Fino worked for the CIA form 1965 to 1969 as a SUNY at Buffalo student informer to infiltrate the Students for a Democratic Society. Ron's father Joe was a mob capo, supra. The CIA recruited students as part of Operation Chaos, an unauthorized domestic spying op in the late 1960's.

In the article Fino said, "he was feeding it (CIA) information on Students for a Democratic Society" who were organizing anti-Vietnam War protests. Curiously enough, scores in SDS swallowed up on campus LSD and many went from pragmatic left-wing radicals to wide-eyed, soul-searching, fringed avatars.

Millions of dollars of CIA research grants were paid to professors and psychological researchers at Universities across the U.S to experiment with psychedelic drugs (ABC News Closeup: Mission Mind Control, 1979 transcripts pg. 6, 25, &34).

Incidentally, in the same Buffalo News article, Fino said he used his Mafia connections to help the CIA look for possible mob connections in the John F. Kennedy assassination.

My investigations juxtaposed with my experiences aims to prove: (1) Fino not only infiltrated Students for Democratic Society for the CIA in the late 1960s at the University of New York at Buffalo in operation Chaos to provide information on SDS, but also to mentor provocateurs. And that, Fino used his underworld connections to target this student organization for neutralization, by the facilitation of drugs on campus to disorganize, discredit in the press, and politically disengage.

And that: (2) my father and I were subjected to a more individual specific yet related CIA parallel behavioral science project called MK-ULTRA that took place in stages over the years and was most active during the late 1960s, as described as follows:

My father, Peter, was unwittingly confined to the VA Canandaigua Hospital by my mother in 1948 soon after he obtained a legal separation. My mother wanted to be a mom: I was born in 1952, their only son. According to my elder cousins' testimony my father was given sub rosa psychoactive substances in his food since 1954. They further testify from 1957-1958 he was subjected to severe electro-shocks that resulted in symptoms of left hemisphere brain damage. According to my cousins, my illiterate mother was tricked into to signing consents for these unusual and cruel experiments.

In April 1953 the CIA began its clandestine mind control program code-named MK-ULTRA, authorized by Directorate Allen Dulles. The use of psycho active drugs for inhumane psychological experimentation has its roots in the ilk of mescaline studies conducted at the Dachau Nazi concentration camp, under the inauspiciousness of Dr. Hubertus Strughold. Severe, long-lasting, debilitating electro-shock was also a part of the MK-ULTRA psy-ops arsenal.

My father was released to the home environment in 1966 at the peak of his trauma. I was fourteen. I went from an unruly teacher's pet to a truant. The Family Court ordered me on probation May 8, 1968 one day after receiving an injection, by Bernard H. Smith, M.D., Head Neurologist-who appeared to me like a specter of Mengele- at Erie County Medical Center. In spite of a court order for the complete records, granted Dec.24th, 1985, filed in NYS Supreme Court, Index H 50258, (file incomplete) ECMC has yet to comply.

In Aug. through Dec.1968, during a Family Court ordered placement to ECMC, I was subjected to a salvo of a cruel type of pseudo-psychoanalytical torture and sexual molestation under hypnosis, by an Episcopalian Chaplin/therapist Lawrence B. Hardy.

In Aug. 1969 Hardy wrote in my medical records "Talked to pt's (patients) mother's attorney a Mr. Musarra who seemed like a pretty good fellow & was willing to go along w (with) our treatment plan."

Arthur F. Musarra, my mother's family lawyer and lawyer for Local 210 had in July 1965 devised reciprocal wills and waivers for my mother and father waving their rights against each other's estate in favor me.

Those wills, according to Surrogate Court Registration card 70602 were filed in the Erie County Surrogate's Court on Oct.15, 1965. Since, my father was declared incompetent in 1960, by William J. Regan, Erie Co. Justice, my father's waiver was fraudulent. Those wills, filed under my mother's name, were removed by Charles D. Wallace, Esq. on May 1, 1972. The Surrogate Court, to this day, refuses to acknowledge those 1965 wills (my father's will) in violation of SCPA section 2507 and Penal Law section 190.30-Concealment of a Will. My father passed away in 1992.

The 1040 Individual Tax Returns for my father and mother show that from 1956 – 1971 no social security number was used for my father. However, from 1973- 1976 my social security number is substituted for my father's. 1972 is missing.

My mother left me pictures of her taken in front of Hurrah's Casino in Las Vegas, in 1972, with her cousin Philip (Cheech) Napoli, of S.F. Cali. (whose father had known ties to Magaddino) and "Bucky" Ciminelli. See pic of my mum doing the laundry in Las Vegas https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/9059c887-f509-4fca-b318-bf61fabcce93

I'd bet it all: that under the shrewd esoteric eye of the Hugh's – Magaddino co-dominion- one million greenbacks of my father's VA disability funds invested in US Savings Bonds, since 1948, got lost in the wash.

And, I'd bet my Uncle Joseph Pezzino's John Hancock, on a forged piece of the rock, meant for me, negotiated at the M&T Bank, was just the tip of the ice berg. Joe hung out with Charlie Caci, a/k/a Bobby Angelli and other Local 210 insiders, including Ron Fino.

Surrogate, William J. Regan (who as County Judge declared my father incompetent in 1960 and did not appoint a committee) failed to do so again in the Surrogate proceedings in 1979.

Surrogate, John J. Honan (who as DA in 1967 reportedly got Calabrese to sing, presided over a 1981 Settlement Decree that was made prior to discovery and a full accounting made of the assets belonging to the estates of my mother and father. The decree was made without my knowledge and later reopened to include my father's interests: my father was not mentioned the 1974 and 1978 wills. Charles D. Wallace, Esq. who drafted the 74 & 78 wills for my mother, told the Surrogate he did not know my father was alive.

Four days before my father died on April 20, 1992, I was informed by SSA that he was entitled to Medicare; Husband's Insurance Benefits and Widower's from 1976. SSA had misinformed me in writing back on Jan. 25, 1984 that no benefits were being paid "on his account." SSA failed to mention my father was entitled to benefits on my mother's earnings record who worked at Trico, since 1948.

I litigated the case from 1992 to 2001, pro se (as party in interest and as proper party estate delegate) winning two consecutive appeals at the Second Circuit and then filing a writ of certiorari at the U.S. Supreme Court for pro se legal-work compensation. The case was rejected. The SSA inconceivably argued all along my father's 1976 application was filed incorrectly, yet refuses to produce it, to this day.

The application was "deemed" as filed correctly a few weeks prior to oral argument for my second appeal at the USCA 2nd Circuit.

As Administrator for my father's estate I just might have another shot in the U.S. Supreme Court for compensation for my pro se legal-work. I'd be the first pro se in U.S. history to get paid in a federal case as the prevailing party to overturn Kay V. Ehrler, 499 U.S. 432 (1991).

My investigations and litigations in following the money trail are continuing.

I'm also investigating leads to discover whether the US military resorted to chemical-biological warfare in gene mutation in conjunction with spraying the defoliant Agent Orange during the Vietnam War causing FSH Muscular Dystrophy in generations of Vietnamese civilians, some U.S. soldiers and in my son, Sol, caused by the March 7, 1968 injection, described supra, most likely research conducted for the U.S. Government, by the Veteran's Administration and/or SUNY at Buffalo Medical School related to the SUNY at Buffalo's Project Themis.
I've just begun my fight for truth and justice. I'm moving on.

Epilogue: What has surfaced since?

Of Henry Peterson and Robert Peloquin, the two DOJ officers who first launched the Strike Force idea in 1967. Peterson became involved in serving Nixon's interests during the Watergate cover-up and left the DOJ. (Waller 284)

Peloquin left the DOJ in late 1967 and went on to make a mysterious career out of organized crime. As early as 1966, on a DOJ official assignment in the Caribbean, he reported overtures by organized crime to take-over casino gambling in the Bahamas. Peloquin reported phenomenal success of ridding the casino of a mob take over. So successful, in fact, he formed his own concern to offer his services to businessmen worried of Mafia take-over of their companies. (Waller 284).

By late 1967 Peloquin resigned from the DOJ and went to work as VP of a company that operated the Paradise Island gambling as a subsidiary of the Mary Carter Paint Co. Eduardo Cellini, an aide of mobster Meyer Lansky from the early days of Havana was manager of the casino, under Peloquin. In early 1968, Mary Carter Paint Co. had changed its name to Resorts International Inc. (Waller 284).

Resorts International built a casino on Paradise Island. Richard Nixon was the guest of honor at the casino's grand opening on New Year's Eve 1968. James Crosby, Pres. of Resorts International, contributed $100,000 to Nixon's campaign. Crosby, Bebe Rebozo, Nixon's buddy, and Nixon partied with a bevy of movie stars, gangsters and GOP faithful. (Martin A. Lee "Acid Dreams: The CIA, LSD and the Sixties Rebellion," 245).

Investigation/Evidence for Million Dollar Recovery of Embezzled/Laundered US Savings Bonds by Buffalo Sicilian Mafia
May 17, 2009 at 12:33pm

Investigation & Evidence of Million Dollar Embezzlement/Laundering
of US Saving Bonds belonging to my father Peter Iannaccone, U.S. WWII Veteran for recovery from the U.S. Dept. of the Treasury

The funds were derived from his federal Veteran's disability payments paid since 1948 & invested into bonds then emblezzled/laundered by my maternal Uncle Joe Pezzino & cousin Phil Napoli in 1972 who were in the Buffalo Sicilian Mafia (also below is related claim of homicide of Thomas F. Martin III in 1985 by my Uncle Joe Pezzino). The million dollars was then invested in Samuel's Grande Manor in 1978 http://www.SamuelsGrandeManor.com

My father was used for torturous CIA drug experimentation while involuntarily confined to the Canandaigua Veteran's Hospital since 1948 as I subsequently was beginning in 1968 in follow-up research.

***

Brief history of Mk-Ultra the CIA’s cold-war behavioral science drug project from “The Search for the Manchurian Candidate: The CIA and Mind Control,” by author John Marks, a former State Dept. official.

Clandestine lobbying by British agents in the U.S. led to Pres. Franklin Roosevelt’s creation of OSS in 1942. It was under the command of Wall Street lawyer Gen. William “Wild Bill” Donovan a native of Buffalo’s South Ward.

In 1943 doctors connected to the S.S and Gestapo were doing mescaline experiments on prisoners at Dachau. At this time OSS, set up a “truth drug” committee under Dr. Winfred Overholser, head of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in Washington. The committee tried various drugs including mescaline and marijuana and set up a testing program in cooperation with the Manhattan Project.

The first field tests of marijuana laced cigarettes took place on May 27, 1943. The subject was August Del Gracio a notorious New York gangster. George White, who came to OSS from the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, administered the drug. White learned much about the narcotics trade from Del Gracio and wanted the Mafia’s cooperation to keep Axis agents out of the New York waterfront and to prepare the way for the invasion of Sicily.

Naval Intelligence sealed a deal in which mob leaders promised to cooperate and N.Y. Gov. Thomas Dewey ordered Del Gracio’s boss of bosses, Charlie “Lucky” Luciano freed from jail in 1946.

The truth-drug committee authorized George White who borrowed dossiers from the FBI to test marijuana as an interrogation technique on suspected communist soldiers stationed in U.S. military camps.

In 1946 prior to the conclusion of the Nuremberg trials U.S investigative teams sifted through the experimental records at Dachau for information of military value. Military authorities sent the records, including a description of the mescaline and hypnosis experiments back to the U.S. None of the German mind-control research was ever made public.

In 1947 the CIA and National Security Council was created- the command structure for the cold war. On April 13, 1953 Allen Dulles approved a project for the “covert use of biological and chemical materials,” proposed by Richard Helms-code named Mk-Ultra.

Issues:

Whether US Dept. of Treasury is mandated to produce the registration records of and be liable for an investment of US Savings Bonds belonging to a WWII Veteran derived from his VA disability payments from 1945 to 1979, where the evidence shows:

The US Veteran was involuntarily confined to the Canandaigua VA Hospital in 1948 by his spouse Mamie following a legal or common law marriage separation and used for CIA drug experimentation since at least the mid 1950s, debilitating electroshocks in 1957-58, and then legally declared an incompetent person in 1960, but no committee appointed.

And where, these bonds were embezzled/laundered in 1972 by my maternal uncle Joseph Pezzino & maternal second cousin Philip Napoli who were members of the Buffalo Sicilian Mafia, as described below.

And where, the Dept of the Treasury admits via letter dated 3/17/88, from L.M. Aanerud, Director, Division of Transaction and Rulings that:
“A search of the Department’s Series G, H, and E registration records for May 1941 through January 1979 with the names, addresses, and social security account numbers furnished disclose the issuance of several bonds, all of which were redeemed more than 10 years ago…”

7/13/1947

Charles Pezzino, Mamie’s father passes away leaving a large family of twelve in financial hardship.

1948

Peter’s family including Eleanor (blood-niece-age 17), testify Peter was living with his father & mother at 149 W. Ferry prior to 1948. Peter was self employed as a painter/wall-paper hanger. Peter was in the process of having a legal or common law marriage separation and obtained a protective order against Mamie and her brothers. Mamie and Peter were disputing entitlement to Peter’s VA funds. Also, Peter had named his mother as beneficiary on his VA Life Insurance. Mamie wanted to be the beneficiary.
Eleanor testifies that Mamie shouted from out side the home, “If you don’t live with me, I’ll put you back in Canandaigua.”
Betty Furhey, Mamie’s blood-niece was with Mamie at that time and confirms Mamie’s threat verbatim. Betty states Mamie was jealous of Peter’s blonde sister-in-law Ruth Taylor and wanted Peter’s child and VA money.
Eleanor testifies two men in long white coats showed up at 149 W. Ferry soon after Mamie’s threat and forcibly retrained Peter in a straight jacket and removed him to Canandaigua.

1/21/1954

Mamie takes out a mortgage with Western Savings Bank of Buffalo on a home at 4121 North Bailey Ave that she bought in her name and her mother Maria Pezzino’s (nee Napoli) name. Mamie did not use a VA mortgage which would have offered a lower loan rate indicating she was not eligible therefore not his legal spouse. This first time only VA mortgage was later used by William to finance the home purchased in his father’s name in 1986. See copy of mortgage, filed in liber 4957, page 165 dated 1/21/54-note drawing of house in top margin is Peter’s which he subsequently drew often, Exh. # 6.)

12/9/55 to 3/3/1960

Peter is confined to the VA Canandaigua Hospital.

Both Betty Furhey and Evelyn Harcrow (blood-nieces) who visited Peter often at the Canandaigua VA Hospital with Mamie testify psychedelic drugs were put in Peter’s food in the mid- 1950’s that made him hallucinate and caused fear and anger. They state Mamie who was illiterate was made to sign consents to have Peter used for experimentation by a VA nurse who befriended the family as a fellow Christian. The above experimentation was confirmed by several of Mamie’s blood-relatives and Peter’s brother Carmen.

Betty Fuhrey and Eleanor Harcrow (Mamie’s blood-nieces) also testify that from 1957-58 Peter underwent severe electro-shocks that caused abnormal speech patterns. He was no longer able to speak coherently yet retained the ability to sing coherently and swear (symptoms of left hemisphere brain damage). These electro-shocks causing verbal abnormalities are also confirmed by several of Mamie’s blood relatives. (See “The Astonishing Hypothesis,” by Francis Crick for symptoms of left-hemisphere damage, pg. 88, Exh. #7).

(3/4/60-8/19/60) Peter is out of the VA Hospital.

William is in 2nd Grade & paints on the easel stick figures of him self and his mother at his home with his father in the background in front of the Canadaigua VA Hospital building. The teacher Mrs. Payne sends him to see the school nurse.

8/20/1960

Upon the petition of Mamie, Peter is judicially declared an Incompetent Person by Judge William J. Regan of the County Court of Erie, but no Committee is appointed. Regan later became a Surrogate Justice and failed to properly identify Peter as an Incompetent and appoint a Committee for Peter’s interests in the estate of Mamie in 1979.

Evelyn Harcrow testifies in a sworn affidavit subscribed on July 28, 2005 sent to Sen. Clinton that: “Peter’s diagnosis on page 3 (of the petition), made while Peter was admitted to the E.J. Meyer Memorial Hospital (Erie Co. Medical Center), on Aug. 19, 1960, as ‘Schizophrenic-Paranoid Type,’ is inaccurate and misleading. It does not take into account that Peter’s condition resulted from his subjugation to experimental military-type research while involuntarily confined to the Canandaigua V.A. Hospital…” (page 3, paragraph 12 of affidavit).

Harcrow also testifies: “I find it remarkable that my Aunt Mamie stated (on the Petition) ‘my husband has a history of mental illness since 1942 and 1943.’ My Aunt Mamie use to falsely claim to others that Peter was severely shell-shocked in WWII to hide the fact she was coerced into consenting for Peter to undergo experimental research that destroyed him psychologically-mainly to keep this secret from her son William G. Iannaccone” (page 3, paragraph 12 of affidavit).

See Petition & Adjudication of Incompetent Person dated 8/20/60 & Iannaccone/Harcrow Affidavit (w/o Exh.) dated 7/28/05- Exh. #8 & #9.

Evelyn, also responds to statements by Mamie upon which the Incompetence Petition is based (as follows) “He mumbles to himself and sometimes will point to a window and says there out there.” Evelyn states Peter most likely was actually being harassed by Uncle Joseph Pezzino and his mob associates and was reacting to actual threats.

8/24/60 to 10/12/66

V.A letter informs from 8/24/60 to 10/12/66 Peter was confined to the VA Canandaigua Hospital.

1965

Just prior to Peter’s release in 1966 from Canandaigua VA Hospital reciprocal wills & NYS estate waivers were made for Peter & Mamie by Arthur F. Musarra, Mamie’s family lawyer since 1953 and lawyer of Local 210, waiving their rights to each others estates in favor of their son. The fact that separate estates exist proves there was no legal marriage in effect.

(See July 22, 1965 letter by Musarra Exh #10)


10/15/65

The reciprocal wills & NYS estate waivers were filed in the Erie Co. Surrogate Court under Mamie’s name and removed on 5/1/72.
Betty Fuhrey who knew the Musarra family delivered papers between Musarra’s law office during this time and confirms the making of the wills (See Surrogate Court registration card # 70602, Exh # 11)

1966

On 10/12/66 Peter is released to live at the home of Mamie & William in a state of severe trauma. William was 13 years old-Grade 9. Peter was often threatened by Mamie’s brother Joe Pezzino a member of the Sicilian Mafia which exacerbated his trauma and rage as confirmed by several of Mamie’s family members.

5/15/67

William is truant from school and is petitioned to Family Court by Mamie as a Person In Need of Supervision (PIN). On 1/17/68 William appears before Judge Killeen who orders a probation investigation. Mamie is being advised by Gerald M. Marek, probation officer who befriends the family as a fellow Christian.


9/1967

William is introduced to marijuana by Dan Parisi, William’s fraternity (TKB) president, whose father was in the Buffalo mafia and who was a friend of Joe Pezzino William’s cousin and owner of Samuel’s Grande Manor. Parisi was later cited in the Buffalo News for a large marijuana distribution ring bust. Parisi also served as an accountant for the Catholic Diocese.

3/3/68- 3/7/68

William is admitted to E.J. Meyer Memorial (ECMC) and received an injection by Bernard H. Smith, M.D. head neurologist, after being asked:
Are you William G. Iannaccone? Is your father Peter Iannaccone who was a patient at the Canandaigua Veteran’s Hospital?

ECMC is currently in contempt of a Court Order for the release of record of injection- most likely research in chemicals causing genetic mutation resulting in FSH-Muscular Dystrophy in William’s son, Sol, born on 7/29/71.) See NYS Supreme Court file# H-50268 Motion for to Compel Compliance with prior Order for Discovery (not in file docket)-Exh #12
(See also page 5, paragraph 16 of the above described Iannaccone/Harcrow affidavit-Exh. #9)

*See my blog "Family Affidavit (subscribed 7/28/05) to Sen. Clinton re Release of Medical Record of Injection, " at http://www.myspace.com/redchameleon

And, see ABC News Closeup, 1/30/79 pg. 62, re: CIA’s research in chemical mutants Exh # 13.

3/8/68

William is adjudged to be a PIN and placed on probation under the supervision of Gerald M. Marek who advised Mamie to have William admitted to E.J Meyer (E.C.M.C) for observation.

8/5/68 – 12/68

From 8/5 -8/24/68 William is admitted to E.J. Meyer (ECMC) for observation and from 8/24/68 to 12/68 was being seen by Rev. Lawrence B. Hardy Chaplin/Therapist who subjected William to sadistic psychological tests, suggestions and assaults targeting his manhood, sexual identity and attempted to make him identify with his “paranoid-schizophrenic” father.

Hardy extracts William’s semen under hypnosis and was in the direct control of its disposition. (See page 7&8, paragraph 24 of Iannaccone/Harcrow Affidavit-Exh. # 9)

*See my blog "Family Affidavit (subscribed 7/28/05) to Sen. Clinton re Release of Medical Record of Injection, " at http://www.myspace.com/redchameleon

7/26/69 -8/4/69

William is readmitted to E.J. Meyer Memorial (ECMC). Hardy writes in his medical notes “Talked to pts (patients) mothers attorney a Mr. Musarra who seemed like a pretty good fellow & was willing to go along w (with) our treatment plan.” See medical notes dated 8/69- Exh. #14.

Mamie is now informed by Musarra and her family members not to tell William about the one million dollars investment in bonds that was embezzled from his father.

9/69-9/72

William returns to Amherst Senior High in 9/69 after leaving at age 16 and obtains HS Diploma in 6/71. William marries and has a son, Sol, and moves his family to S.F., Cali. to attend the Academy of Art College in summer of 1972. William later attends the California Institute of Asian Studies. Marie Law convinced William’s mother that William married a “butana,” (Italian for bum) to prevent Mamie from telling William about his father’s embezzled million dollars. To the contrary William’s wife was a very good girl and mother.


1972

Evelyn Harcrow testifies in a sworn statement filed in the NYS Supreme Court, Index # 27,466 that Peter’s US Savings Bonds were negotiated in 1972 and were valued at one million dollars. And that Peter and Mamie were legally separated. (See Harcrow affidavit filed on 3/31/2004-Exh. #15)

1978

Mamie before passing away on 10/15/78 provides William with a security file box and says:

“Son, there are things that people made me do. I don’t have the heart to tell you. No one’s going to help you. You are going to have to figure it out for yourself. This way I’ll know you’ll be alright.”

Contained in the file box was the above letter from Arthur F. Musarra, dated July 22, 1965 (Exh. #10) regarding the reciprocal wills & estate waivers; bank accounts, checks, insurance numbers, correct social security numbers used for Peter & Mamie and letter from Bernard H. Smith, M.D. (which jogs William’s memory of the unusual questions, prior to the injection as described supra. See letter from Bernard H Smith, M.D. dated 1/23/69 –Exh. #16)

Also, left behind by Mamie was a picture of her in front of Harrah’s Casino in Las Vagas in 1972 joined by her cousin Phil Napoli a narcotics trafficker who had ties to Stephano Magaddino the don of the Niagara Falls region. Napoli moved to San Francisco in 1960 just prior to the Haight- Ashbury hippie invasion. Also in the picture is “Bucky” Cimminelli a Buffalo construction magnate. (See picture of Mamie and Phil Napoli- Exh. #17)

Also, left behind by Mamie tucked away in William’s grade school work books are the 1040 Individual Income Tax Returns filed by Mamie from 1956 to 1976. These returns show no social security number used for Peter previous to and including 1971. 1972 is missing. Beginning in 1973 through 1976 William’s social security number is substituted for Peter’s.

(See, 1040s for 1971 & 1973-Exh. # 18).

William obtains from the NYS Dept of Insurance a copy of Prudential Insurance check payable to William negotiated at the M&T Bank on 12/6/77. William’s signature is forged by Mamie. The second endorser on the check is William’s Uncle Joseph Pezzino a member of the Buffalo Mafia. The signature matches a note written by Joe Pezzino to William on 10/17/85.

(See copy of front & back of check and note-Exh. #19)

Joe Pezzino cousin to William- owner of Samuel’s Grande Manor concedes it was Uncle Joe who cashed in the bonds in 1972.

According to William’s long-time friend John Mallon who works for the IRS the above information, including the IRS Returns, picture of Mamie in Las Vagas in 1972 and affidavit by Evelyn Harcrow show that the bonds were embezzled by Uncle Joe in 1972-most likely in the same manner as the Prudential check at the M&T Bank where the VA had a direct deposit program set up for veterans. The million dollars was then laundered in Harrah’s Casino by Mamie and her cousin Phil Napoli in 1972-where he most likely had the connections to launder drug money as well-and then reported as gambled away using William’s social security number on the 1972 IRS returns.

1973 -78

Sam Pezzino uses the laundered million dollars to invest in luxury apartments including Kingswood Apartments and Samuel’s Grande Manor. The funds are then transferred to Marie Law (Mamie’s sister) who moves to Florida in around 1986.

1978

Marie Law (sister to Mamie) who did the banking for her and who was close to her brother Joseph Pezzino who was a member of the Buffalo Sicilian Mafia files a Death Cert. for Mamie that substituted William’s son Sol’s social security number for Mamie’s and records she does not know her mother’s maiden name (Napoli). This was later corrected by William.

See original and corrected Death Cert. of Mamie Exh. # 20

1982

Uncle Joe Pezzino visits William and threatens “I’ll blow your head off.” Previous threats include “I’ll break your back.” These threats follow William’s Surrogate Court interventions and investigation of one-million dollars in embezzled bonds by William.

5/1984

William contacts the IRS, Criminal Div. to make a criminal investigation into the embezzled bonds valued at one million dollars. By letter dated May 16, 1984, Ronald D. Pyszczynski, Disclosure Specialist, provides William a seven page memorandum report by Estate Tax Attorney Nicholas R. Critelli, where on page 6, paragraph 2 it states:

“Letter from U.S. Dept. of Treasury, Fiscal Services, dated 1/27/84, in response to the examiner’s letter and phone conversation regarding U.S. Savings Treasury certificates registered in the name of the decedent states that they made a through search of records and can find no accounts open or closed from the information provided.”

>>> (See below at (12/10/87) for subsequent discovery by William of 33 U.S. Bonds in Mamie’s & Williams name proving the above inquiry erroneous.)

Also, Critelli report of 5/16/84 did not include and investigate the accounts in the name of Mamie Iannaccone and Peter Iannaccone at the Manufactures & Traders Trust bank.
(See IRS Memoradum, dated 5/16/84-Item #21).
>>>An Abandoned Account in the name of Mamie Iannaccone ATF Sol Iannaccone (Mamie’s grandson) is revealed by letter dated 4/1/80 sent by M&T Bank proving Mamie did have accounts with M&T 3 years prior to her death on 10/15/78. Also, M&T checks in Marie Law’s handwriting signing for Mamie’s Prudential Life Insurance premiums, dated1968-1977 further prove Mamie had accounts with M&T Bank. Marie did the all the banking for Mamie who was illiterate.

See copy M&T letter dtd. 4/1/80 & M&T checks (front & back) Exh. # 22

Also quoted in the IRS report:

“The examiner Nicholas Critelli, notes from the examination of the Erie County Surrogate’s file #78-6265 a Petition for Judicial Settlement signed by Marie Law, executrix that the petitioner stated the decedent’s estate was not subject to New York Transfer Tax.
Schedule A in the Petition lists bank accounts totaling $45,081.25 plus post death interest of $8,161.91 which totaled a gross New York estate of $53,243.16. No real estate or life insurance was noted in the Petition for Judicial Settlement.
The examiner noted from the Criminal Investigation Division file information that the decedent did own life insurance of two policies not disclosed in the Judicial Settlement of the decedent’s estate, namely Metropolitan Life Insurance, group #14818T for $7,658.37 and Prudential Insurance, M53013892 for $742.67. Total life insurance is $8,404.00
Examiner also noted from the Criminal Investigation Division file information that the decedent did transfer title to real estate at 4121 North Bailey Avenue, Buffalo, New York to her sister, Marie Law on 10/6/78, just prior to the decedent’s death on 10/15/78. Marie Law subsequently sold this property to Ronald and Susan Sennane (Ron Cenname-my cousin) on 12/8/80 for a price of $43,000.
From the information above, it appears that after and even including the real estate and even including the insurance not reported in the gross estate of the decedent, that a gross estate of $104,404.00 would result, if no other assets were discovered belonging to the decedents and determined to be included in the decedent’s gross estate.
The decedent died on 10/15/78. The threshold amount required for filing a Form 706, Federal Estate Tax return in 1978 was $134,000. Assuming that only $104,404. would be includable in the decedent’s gross estate, and additional $29,596. of assets would have to be not only discovered, but determined to be includable in the decedent’s gross estate in order to require filing of Form 706.
The examiner concludes that there will be not sufficient assets established and determined includable in the gross estate so as to require the filing of Form 706.”

9/1984

Betty Fuhery was going to appear in the Surrogate Court in support of William to acknowledge the 1965 will made by Arthur F. Musarra, Esq and one-million dollars investment in US Bonds embezzled by Joe Pezzino. Betty also was willing to sign a notarized letter to testify to the above, but states she was visited by Joe Pezzino who threatened her. Betty states to William she would be shot by Uncle Joe and no one would find out who did it. So Betty does not sign the letter or appear in court.

See, 9/84 letter (unsigned) Exh. # 23

2/27/85

Article appears in Buffalo News regarding the Onyx criminal case involving M&T University Plz Branch, Ex-Banker Carl Mastykarz, Rev. William F. White III (a family friend who married Betty) and Joe Fino, long time member of Local 210. See 2/27/85 & (...) News Article Item 24

3/8/1985

During Surrogate Court proceeding involving Marie Law’s accounting of assets belonging to the estate of Mamie Iannacone Thomas F. Martin III, William’s best friend is shot in the head in his bed on 3/8/85.

1985

In the summer of 1985 William is threatened by his maternal second cousin Anthony Bolea who confronts William & Peter in a car in front of Joe Pezzino’s restaurant Big John’s Pizzeria. Bolea approached the car from the left rear side of the Pizzeria. Bolea is holding a small couch pillow under one arm while extending his thumb upward and pointing with his index finger at the pillow-in the definite shape of a gun.
In Oct. 1985 Joe Pezzino William’s uncle threatens William by stating/gesturing: “You know your buddy Tom Martin?” He then puffs out his chest, points his thumb to his chest, grins wide and yells “Alright.”
Joe Pezzino then takes up residence in the apartment above William & his father after William moves to the lower apt to avoid a legal eviction. William finds a live-in girlfriend, purchases a home for his father and moves out by Nov. 1986.

1985

According to Cert. of Marriage Registration, signed by the City Clerk, obtained by William on 5/24/85, # 475- Record No. 815, Year of 1938- Peter was married to Mamie on April 24, 1938. Note: City Clerk personnel state that a copy of the original marriage license is illegible so the Cert. of Marriage Registration is provided as a substitute.
(See Cert of Marriage Reg. dated 5/24/85 Exh. # 25

Note: Mamie was also given a Cert of Marriage rather than an actual copy on 8/30/50 only 12 years after the claimed marriage date of 4/38 (raising serous doubt actual copy exists).

12/10/1987

Resulting from a request for investigation of bonds by William by letter dated 10/21/87 the Dept. of Treasury responds by letter of 12/10/87 revealing 28 unpaid bonds registered under Mamie or Gary Iannaccone and 5 paid bonds.
See 12/10/87 letter by DOT Exh. # 26

2/29/1988

Resulting from further request for investigations of bonds by William by letter dated 1/15/88 the Dept of the Treasury responds by letter of 2/29/88 stating “a search of our Series E records in all denominations from 10/1957-12/1978…did not disclose the issuance of any securities.”
See copy of DOT letter dtd. 2/29/88 Exh # 27.

3/17/88

In response to a Judicial Subpoena received 3/14/88 the Dept of the Treasury responds by letter dated 3/17/88 stating: “A search of the Dept’s Series G, H, and E registration records for May 1941 through January 1979 with the names, addresses and social security account numbers furnished disclosed the issuance of several bonds, all of which were redeemed more than 10 years ago, with the exception of 32 bonds registered in the name of Mamie Iannaccone with Gary Iannaccon named as coowner which were retired by this office as undeliverable and are presently being reissued to Gary Iannaccone.” See DOT letter dated 3/17/88 Exh. # 28

4/1/88

William receives a check for the bonds found in the amount of $6,259.88 See copy of check Exh. # 29

2/2/89

In a Buffalo News Article of 2/2/89, Michael Beebe, reveals Local 210 member Ron Fino worked for the CIA from 1965 – 1969 as a SUNY at Buffalo student informer to infiltrate the Students for a Democratic Society. Ron’s father Joe was mob capo. The CIA recruited students as part of Operation Chaos, an unauthorized domestic spying op in the late 1960’s.
In the article Fino said “he was feeding it (CIA) information on Students for a Democratic Society” who were organizing anti-Vietnam War protests. Curiously enough, scores of SDS swallowed-up on-campus LSD and many went from pragmatic left-wing radicals to wide-eyed, soul searching, fringed avatars.
Note: Millions of dollars of CIA research grants were paid to professors and psychological researchers at Universities across the U.S to experiment with psychedelic drugs (See ABC News Closeup: Mission Mind Control, 1/30/79 transcripts pg 6, 25 & 34, Item #30)
Incidentally, in the same Buffalo News Article Fino said he used his Mafia connections to help the CIA look for possible mob connections in the John F. Kennedy assassination

After his stint with the CIA Fino becomes an informer for the FBI in 1972 at age 24 while taking over Local 210. As described above (at 2/27/85) Fino later got in hot water when the Buffalo News revealed a fraudulent minority front company he was involved in-the Onyx Construction and Equipment Co. Fino now says it was a government sting set up in 1978 aimed at former mob boss Sam Pieri.

Note: U.S Attorney Richard D. Kaufman (who I have worked with on these investigations since 1985) remarked to me that when Fino started singing to the press he was in hot water in a criminal proceeding. Was Fino using the press to gain leverage for leniency in the criminal case by coming forward to say he worked for the CIA during the late 1960’s at UB? What else does he know that the CIA did not want him to reveal? Most likely it had to do with the Mafia-CIA links in Mk-Ultra that even Fino did not know the depths of-that I uncovered.

1992

My father passed away on 4/20/92. Four days prior, I was first informed my father was eligible for Medicare & Widower’s Insurance since 1976. I was misinformed by SSA since 1983 that his father was not entitled to Medicare or SSA Insurance benefits.
The SSA claimed the now uncovered 1976 application for Peter was filed incorrectly, yet did not produce the record. I litigated the case in the U.S. District Court and twice prevailed in the U.S. Court of Appeals, 2nd Circuit. On the second appeal in 2001 the SSA “deemed” Peter’s application as filed correctly. I recovered over $104,000.00 for SSA benefits entitled to Peter from 1976-1992, plus court fees.

See U.S.C.A., 2nd Cir. Summary Order of Jan. 17, 2001 and copy of SSA checks, Exh. # 32.

Incidentally, on a print out from Social Security showing the wages earned by Mamie from 1951- 1976 whereupon it states earnings made in 1972 as $6,806. it shows “Mary Naples” for mother’s maiden name (rather than correctly as Napoli).
It also shows that the DOF -date of filing of SSA application for Peter as 11/76.
See SSA print out Exh # 33

Summary

The Dept. of Treasury (DOT) has stated in their letter of May 23, 1988:

“…In 1980, the savings bond regulations were amended to provide notice to owners that photographic copies of paid bonds would no longer be available 10 years after the bonds are cashed. Such bonds are presumed to have been properly paid. This means that in the absence of other evidence, the Treasury will assume that the proper owner(s) received payment. The Government continues to stand ready to replace or pay any bond that is shown not to have been paid.
The Courts have said that the savings bond owners must exercise reasonable diligence in making a claim for bonds purportedly lost. Otherwise, if the bonds have been cashed, the 6-year statue of limitations applies…”
(see DOT letter of 5/23/88 Exh # 34).

Clearly, this is a criminal case involving allegations of embezzlement and laundering of a one-million dollar investment of US Savings Bonds derived from the federal V.A. funds belonging to a WWII Veteran. And, tax evasion and claim of responsibility for an act of murder in an attempt to thwart an ongoing investigation thereof.

Further, Peter was confined to the VA Canandaigua Hospital since 1944 and legally declared an Incompetent person in 1960, where no committee was appointed and not able to make a claim for these bonds embezzled from him as described above.

The DOT must produce the complete registration records of Peter/Mamie & William Gary Iannaccone to avoid a continuation of the obstruction of justice in a criminal matter. The registration records include the name, address and more recently social security number of bond owners, the denomination and how the bond was negotiated (when the bonds were redeemed and who redeemed them) and serves as the probative evidence in the above alleged crimes. See Audio Tape- Notes of 5/31/88 of Chuck McGowen of the Federal Reserve Bank, Buffalo, NY. Exh. #35.

The DOT already reissued 28 bonds that were registered in the names of Mamie or (William) Gary Iannaccone. The DOT was informed by William that the 28 bonds were not in his possession and the 5 redeemed bonds were not redeemed by him. According to Randy Shepard, of the DOT the missing bonds were returned to Wash, D.C., and received on 12/3/87 and then sent and received by DOT in Parkersburg, VA on 12/24/87. Randy states “I don’t know who sent them.”
Most likely those bonds were in the possession and sent to Wash. D.C. by Marie Law who was the benefactor of the 5 (fraudulently) redeemed bonds belonging to William.
Yet, the DOT did not properly conduct a through investigation of the registration records even at that time to account for the remaining one-million dollar investment in bonds embezzled from Peter, as described above.
See Taped Notes dated 3/4/88. Exh. #35.

The DOT is liable for this fraudulent payment of one million in bonds belonging to Peter a US Veteran derived from his U.S Government issued disability payments which were embezzled and laundered by William's maternal Uncle and second cousin who were members of the Buffalo Sicilian Mafia.
Further Actions

William intends to provide an open letter of evidence to the IG of the DOT with supporting letter from U.S. Attorney Richard D. Kaufman and additional letter of support signed by National Lawyers Guild members and other lawyers and law students. The evidence will include some of the information herein and additional evidence including new affidavits and video testimonials of family relatives to compel the production of the complete registration records of embezzled/laundered bonds for the recovery of the embezzled/laundered one million dollars.

Note: Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard D. Kaufman has closely followed this entire investigation by William. Richard D. Kaufman has stated although he has notified the FBI to organized crime involvement in the embezzlement/laundering of a million dollars bonds and the claim of execution style murder of Thomas F. Martin III where the underlying motive was a threat to William in an attempt to thwart the investigation of embezzled/laundered U.S. Savings Bonds belong to a U.S. Veteran, the FBI are not properly investigating these alleged crimes involving organized crime.

Richard D. Kaufman is following William’s actions with the DOT and wants to reopen the murder investigation of Thomas F. Martin III and relying on William for further information related to be above crimes.
