Don't eat the red snow
Eighty-five years ago this morning an employee of a Brooklyn lumber yard
showed up for work and found a trail of blood in the yard. His curiosity peeked, he
followed said trail which led to a pile of snow. Digging he found one
James Tinorello who had been shot three times in the back of the head. Police said that Tinorello, who was 27 and had six arrest under his belt, was involved in a liquor syndicate that operated in Brooklyn and Queens.
