Darryl "God" Whiting ran a 100+ member drug gang out of the Orchard Park public housing project in the early 90's. The operation is said to have overseen a 24hr a day crack distribution business, that wrought havoc in Roxbury. He was celebrated as a local hero, while simultaneously decimating the entire neighborhood. Darryl also had legitimate businesses and a thriving "Social Club" in Grove Hall, however it was merely a front for selling drugs. "God's" reign lasted about 4-5 years, making at times $100,000 a day. The organization was ultimately penetrated by a maverick undercover Boston Housing police officer Jeff Coy. Coy and other cops brought the "New York Boys" down and the prison sentences were legendary. Darry Whiting received a life sentence for leading this sprawling criminal organization. The housing development was largely ruined by Whiting's organization. Please share this episode!

Sean Ellis Part 2 -Replay- The Netflix Series Trial 4 is a farce and that's being generous Jan 29, 2024

Show notes

Send a text

(REPLAY) In order to believe Sean Ellis is innocent, you'd have to believe, the Boston Police Forensic Unit, took Letia Walker's fingerprints at the courthouse and then proceeded to place a print on the gun that killed Det Mulligan. Did the technology to conduct this conspiracy exist in 1993? Does it even exist now? Letia Walker, Sean Ellis's girlfriend, went on to testify that Sean brought the guns into her house. Mrs. Walker had ample opportunity to recant her testimony, why hasn't she? If you notice, she never denied she touched the gun. Why wouldn't the producers ask Mrs. Waker directly, if she touched the gun? She was sitting right there, on camera. The answer is if she answered truthfully Sean Ellis is guilty. This story proved too good to actually investigate. Trial 4 is so defendant slanted it should come with a warning label.

On Thursday January 18, 2024 defense Attorney Yanetti revealed that there had been a conference call, between the defense, the prosecutors and the Department of Justice. The focus of the call, was to inform the parties that the feds were going to provide information pertaining to the federal corruption investigation, apparently focusing on the police and prosecutors offices in the Karen Read case. The wheels are falling off of this case and we'll know more in about two weeks.
Aiden Kearney-Turtleboy also posted the audio of his hearing for a domestic violence restraining order, which occurred on January 8, 2024.

(RePlay) Brianna Maitland 2004- Brianna's disappearance is a true whodunit, Its believed that her "friends" know more than they're saying Jan 07, 2024

Show notes

Send a text

Brianna craved independence and she was on her way to life goals she had set. She appeared to fall into a tough crowd that was involved in hard drugs. Some poor decisions led to some teenage strife. She departed her job late at night and her car was found the next day at an old landmark in the area. The police seemingly could not ascertain that her car, abandoned with doors open and items strewn about, was a crime scene. That set the negative tone going forward, at least in terms of the investigation. Precious time was lost at the beginning of the investigation and Brianna was never seen again.

Karen Read Update- Red flags in the Read Case and Turtleboys arrest Dec 31, 2023

Show notes

Send a text

During today's episode we'll go over some red flags in this case and the arrest of Turtleboy, Aidan Kearney. Aidan was arrested for domestic violence and witness intimidation and is currently being held in jail, awaiting a bail review. I believe he'll likely be released with restrictions on his reporting, in the coming days, however this is exactly what the Commonwealth of Massachusetts desired.
There are many aspects of this case that don't fit the Commonwealth's narrative, including the fact that the state police did not use their own accident reconstruction unit to examine the vehicle and crime scene, a police officer was killed and you don't pull out every stop in getting to the bottom of this tragic case?
Don't forget the fact that the lead investigator in this case, knew potential perpetrators and direct witnesses, for years, in fact there is video of the trooper dancing with them at a wedding. So many aspects of this case simply defy the laugh test. If you're a tax payer, it seems the joke is on you.

Charlestown Code of Silence Armored Car Robbery Part 2-Massive amounts of evidence is located and the code breaks into pieces Dec 24, 2023

Show notes

Would a professional robbery crew rent a getaway vehicle in their own name? Would it be difficult to get rid of another vehicle, that contained a mask and deposit slips? Probably not but, that is what this crew did, it appeared that booze and cocaine had gotten the best of the "Boston Bandits". The code of silence was broken, if it ever really existed. Brother would soon testify against brother. The murderous Hudson N.H. robbery would imprison the crew, but it was not the last robbery, nor the last shootout. The FBI would use a novel prosecution strategy for this group. The feds used the RICO statute to bring this crew to justice. Most of the crew received life sentences. The least of the sentences was more than thirty years in federal prison. Was it all worth it, to die in the joint...broke?

A double homicide of armored car guards in 1994, revealed a professional crew of armed robbers from, Charlestown, Mass. The investigation that followed found an unrelenting string of bank and armored car robberies, that continued, even after this botched robbery that netted $500,000. The trial crushed the code of silence that the criminals had counted on, if it truly existed at all. The murder of two working class guards turned the local population against the crew. The trial would find brother testifying against brother. These events would rock gritty Charlestown and the rest of Boston. Don not miss this two part series.

Ruth Terry was named as the Lady of the Dunes in Provincetown, Massachusetts. The horrifying and mutilated remains were discovered by a teenage girl on Race Point beach in July 1974. She went unnamed for forty-eight years. Ruth Terry apparently had several aliases, as did her husband Guy Rockwell Muldavin. He never reported her missing and he was suspected in a double homicide in Seattle, Washington. Muldavin died in 2002, now the police have been trying to piece his life together. Muldavin also used many aliases, what was going on here? The FBI used genealogical DNA to locate Mrs Terry's family and the identification was made. This is an amazing story, don't miss it! please share!
