MYSTERY ATTIC, I don’t expect you to believe what I have been saying all these years to be true. I had doubts for 2 years when this journey first began in mid-2004. I went through the whole process, the arrest and the trial which ended on 2/10/06. I believed something bad happened, but never believed it happened the way the DA said it did. I sat there at the trial with my stomach in my throat waiting for that one piece of testimony, no matter how vague that would make me believe he did this crime. It never happened. I continued my investigation into this matter until this very day and have still found nothing.
We know certain things happened that may ‘point’ to guilt if you don’t understand the rest of the case.
We know there was a burglary the son in law responded to and after he was there and took it from the cop that previously accepted it.
We know the witness the DA used was known to my son in law, but not in the contest they had the jury believe. We also know his friend that wasn’t charged was part of that indictment. That person was a good friend of my son in law, and knew the witness the DA used to testify in this trial. There was certainly a prima facie case to at least suspect he was a participant in this crime.
We now know the witness they used was James Burke’s neighbor from 1998 to 2002. I have learned recently that when the witness was arrested about 2 years earlier, for a burglary and was caught with a gun in the car that Burke made a call to a detective and asked him to find out anything he might know about this incident. We know the burglary victim was a relative of the victim in that case. It tells me that Burke had and still has an interest in the criminal activities of his neighbor. We also know the witness did only 6 months for that burglary while two others did up to three years, and the fellow that was bribed to take the gun charge got an extra 18 months for stupidly admitting to owner a gun he never owned. We also know that moron never received a dime from the witness that promised him 200/250K for his admitting to the gun so the other three could avoid a bigger jail sentence.
We know at the trial that same witness when asked if he ever paid the sucker anything, he laughed and said, “That’s a lot of money.” He knowingly sent his own fellow burglar to jail for an extra 18 months and laughed about doing so.
CUT RIGHT TO THE FACTS:
Police bring in a fellow named Peter G. PG gives them information on Burke’s neighbor’s criminal ring. They finish debriefing the guy on 9/3/03 and bring him to Burke’s office. He gave them information on some pretty dangerous criminals. One is doing 40 years in a federal prison and anther one is finishing up a 15 years sentence in another federal prison. In other words, PG is a very important witness should the cops wish to proceed with their investigation. Three weeks later PG is murdered outside of a known drug distribution company operated by the guy that is doing 40 years, and Burke’s neighbor.
One month later 3 detectives and a ADA are sent to Florida to bring Burke’s neighbor back to NY for investigation, primarily for the murder of PG and another guy found in NJ.
When he was brought back from Florida he was already in the middle of a massive mortgage/bank fraud operation. Of course, I have the names of those companies he used to steal millions from the people of Florida,
He pleads out to 38 violent felonies: numerous burglaries, home invasions, arson of an occupied building. He also admits to being a drug dealer. He will not receive a day in jail and is put on probation for 5 years and allowed to go back to Florida to resume his mortgage scam. The two murders he was brought back to LI have never been solved. He will do his Suffok probation in the care of the Palm Beach County DOC.
I got him kicked out of Florida. Before he leaves he does another mortgage fraud when he gets his mistress to buy a house at 310 Pine Bluff rd., Royal Palm Beach, FL. That house was foreclosed on less than a year after he purchased it.
He is now in Arizona swindling everyone that falls for his line of crap. He opens up several businesses: Uncle Joe’s Used Cars, and Frontline Auto Auctions. Before leaving for NY he opens up a company called Big Apple Towing, under his mistress’s mother’s name.
GOOGLE the above two car companies and you will see what he has been up to of late. He used an alias with the name Colombo. Colombo is the name of his mistress; it is also the name of a late gangster Joe Colombo. Joe, when in NY liked to ride around with a license plate with the name of GOTTI.
Tom Spota and Jim Burke could give a rat’s azz less.
THE QUESTION THAT HAS NEVER BEEN ANSWERED IS: Who told Peter G’s killers he was giving testimony to the DA. Why wasn’t PG given protection and why did they allow him to visit the epic center of much of the crime in Suffolk County?
Trust me MA there is a lot more I can’t write about because I can’t prove it other than to my satisfaction, and I have to protect those that have confided in me. I know a lot more than I have written, and IMO, it is all true.
