Loose lips sinks snitch

With information provided by a snitch named Joseph Randazzo police raided an apartment and arrested a drug dealer named James Di Lorenzo who was said to be the top cocaine dealer in the city. Also arrested was Di Lorenzo’s brother in-law John Gravino who had a history of selling opium. Di Lorenzo was released on bail. Perhaps coincidentally or not, ninety-four years ago today Randazzo was found in an east side saloon with twenty-two stab wounds. Police didn't feel that it was a coincidence.
