STATE TROOPER AND MEMBER OF LAW ENFORCEMENT MAFIA TAKES A PINCH

WELL, WELL, WELL. A local bookmaker and FBI informant, as shocking as that may be, has helped the FBI pinch a local Mass State Trooper for extortion. This is a great story. Read it and let me know what you think. Maybe this Trooper just has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder due to his strenuous job. I'm sure the PAID LEAVE HE WILL BE PLACED ON WILL HELP WITH THAT.....LOL

State Trooper facing extortion charges

BOSTON (AP) — A Massachusetts state trooper has been charged with extortion after allegedly going into business with a bookmaker who was working as an FBI informant.

Authorities say John Analetto beat and repeatedly threatened to kill the informant after loaning the informant about $24,000 to pay off debts to loansharks. In exchange, Analetto allegedly demanded a percentage of the informant's gambling business. An FBI agent says in an affidavit that Analetto also threatened to kill one of the informant's bettors.

Analetto was arrested Saturday in Belmont.

He is due to make an initial appearance in federal court this afternoon. He is charged with collection of extensions of credit by extortionate means.
