I am wondering if we can discuss the nursery guy or if he's off limits due to TOS
JUSTICE. A week or so before the rumor about the nursery guy began I wrote on these very boards on how the SCPD 'could' solve this case, i.e., blame it on a man that can't defend himself. When you are dead you no longer can deny it. Blaming a murder(s) on a dead man is a tried and true technique for a lot of police departments. In most cases most don't care if a cop does a little imagination writing. In Suffolk County it is SOP. But the Gilgo Case is no ordinary case that quickly fades from the public eye.
In the SIL case the DA was looking for some payback for another guy that fought them even after being given a get out of jail pass. For one felony and three misdemeanors he was offered a VIOLATION. Just go away and don't put us at risk to expose our own scandals.
The fellow mentioned above was a friend of my son in law. They began their burglary investigation to put this guy in the middle of it while acting as the Mastermind.
After failing to put a legitimate case together two detectives, one a Det.Sgt that is now being sued in federal court for various charges that Martin Tankleff filed against him and others.
This detective told the SIL they were sent to him at the order of Tom spota. They told him Spota doesn't want you, he wants Tom N. They also told him 'don't shoot dice with this', and 'don't test us on this." He shot the dice because he had nothing to say other than lies they would create for him and he rolled snake eyes, and lost.
They just made it up as they went along. They got three criminals that were faced with jail to make up stories. Stories that even 6th graders should have understood were lies. But the usual suffolk jurors aren't 6 th graders, they are total idiot drinking kool aid consumers.
It was that easy to frame an innocent man even though he had a skillful lawyer, a great one. In any other jurisdiction the lawyer armed with the same information could have gotten Eichmann off the hook.
Which brings us back to the nursry owner. The two main pieces of 'evidence' they would have liked you to accept is he had a supply of burlap bags for his nursery business. The other piece of 'evidence' is he committed suicide not long after SG was found. GUILTY as charged. What the rumors didn't mention is that the nursery guy had suicide and suicide attempts in his family. Suicide is a genetic illness in some families.
The lie didn't fly because Boards like this,,,,,and make no mistake about it these types of forums do have some influence, wrote about what they were trying to do to close this case. The owner also had a surviving family with some money to fight these charges. Tom Spota decided to kill that rumor.
Also, make no mistake about it when I say the rumor was started by members of the SCPD. A word here and a word there and it gets out to the public for them to spread for the cops.
there is at least one poster on this Board who has told me he knows several uniform cops in SCPd and they told him that the nursery owner is the killer. The worse part is they probably believe it.
My friends, I got a PHD in SCPD/DA techniques. I continue to seque it into my posts because I truly believe the case should be used as a text book example on how they frame people with reckless abandon knowing they won't be punished for their criminal actions.
