he was funny when i knew him. at that time he was a $2 bookmaker. he had a sideline in sneaking in the barns at Aqueduct and drugging horses. One horse died from a heart attack in the home stretch.
I think I would have remembered if he was 6'3". maybe 5 11 .
I saw Burke almost everyday for a long time. I think I would have remembered if he was 6'3".
He didn't go to jail for Lufthansa robbery. The fact is he was in jail when it happened. He went to jail for his part in fixing Boston College basketball games.
Lufthansa was first hatched out of a bowling alley in Green Acres shopping center.
It was only a big heist because of the amount of money involved. It was always there for the taking.
Little Jimmy Burke was reported to have been housed in a half-way house in Brooklyn. Other than checking in he never stayed there. They allowed him to go home. If they can allow the likes of Little Jimmy to stay home it isn't hard to understand Dean Skelos could be given the same get out of jail pass. It's ALL BULLshyte.
Where is your compassion? Skelos has C.virus - and is on home confinement, and for the record so does Michael Cohen (Trumps fixer)
so he's allowed to go home, too. Roger Stone is NOT in prison
It's a damn good thing to be in bed with the criminal politicians, eh?[/QUOTE

The Gallagher son was NOT informant. They made him such on paper to get him imoff the hook. It was BSMany times there is a translation required to understand the true story. Chief Gallagher's son was not a drug dealer he was an informant. The IA boss clipped for soliciting prostitute is not a sex fiend he was conducting secret investigation unbeknownst to others. And of course Burke's story wasn't a home invasion or unlawful imprisonment it was a love story. Why was Lt. Murphy a murder suspect well the possiblities are endless.
