If these walls could talk … they wouldn’t say nothin’. They once were Al Capone’s walls, and they don’t rat.
A house on the South Side of Chicago, in the Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood, that once was home to Capone, Chicago’s most infamous mafia boss, is listed for sale. For $225,000, you can rest your head under the same roof at 7244 Prairie Avenue where Capone moved in during August of 1923. But the real estate agent insists you must prove you’ve got the cash to make the buy before you even set foot into the house. Continue reading “Buy Al Capone’s Chicago Home”
Former Prime Minister Bruce Golding testified yesterday morning that he personally knew Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke and had spoken with him on several occasions.
He says the last time he communicated with him was in December, 2007, when the Jamaica Constabulary Force told him that it was concerned about the presence of members of the St. James-based Stone Crusher Gang in Tivoli.
He said he surmised the police were apprehensive about going after the men in Tivoli, fearing the outcome of an operation. Mr. Golding said he sent a messenger to Coke, who sent back a message that there were no such persons in the community.
According to the former prime minister, the police insisted that their intelligence suggested suspects were in the area and carried out an operation in the area in January 2008 but the prime targets were not captured.
He said the circumstances affected his relationship with Coke.
Infamous Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 21, was the victim of an “unfortunate accident” at Ft. Devens Detention Center.
Let me just insert this small disclaimer, I am not sure if this story is authentic in any way.
According to thisarticle on Empire News, members of the Aryan Nation, a white supremacists gang within the same detention center as the ‘Boston bomber’ have taken credit for a bloody attack which left him unable to possibly walk again. The weapon? A banana peeler.
A member of the Aryan Nation claims that the attack did the American people justice. He also makes claims that “other gangs wanted him” but that they outbid them in a bounty supposedly held by prison guards. He then goes on to say that he and his fellow gang members were given sentence REDUCTIONS for following through with the grisly attack.
The story definitely seems a little “questionable” based on some of the statements made here. To my knowledge, there was no major news coverage of the story. I believe that if a story of this magnitude were true, everybody involved would be plastered across the breaking news scroll, guards included. The media loves a sensational story, no doubt CNN or Huffington would have a field day with this. Based on stories I have heard, a lot “stranger” things happen behind those hardcore prison walls. Violence would seem to be fairly typical, after all prison is considered the “concrete jungle”.
That being said, I am kind of prone to believe this “news” reeks of total fabrication –but I’ll let you be the judge (and jury) of that.
If these walls could talk … they wouldn’t say nothin’. They once were Al Capone’s walls, and they don’t rat.
