The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. The cold-blooded world of organized crime in Rhode Island once felt untouchable, hidden behind the stoic façades of social clubs and whispered conversations. But thanks to retired State Police Major Anthony M. Pesare, those dark corners are being pulled into the light, on the page, in the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Pesare, who served with distinction in the Rhode Island State Police for 24 years, spent a portion of his career inside the elite Intelligence Unit, investigating the Mafia, political corruption, and cold murder cases. His real-life experience forms the basis for his gripping novels They Always Win: Inspired by a True Story and Back in the Game, both part of the Gino Peterson series. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast interview, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and more podcast platforms. “I've seen firsthand how the lines can blur between the law and the people we're chasing,” Pesare explains in the popular Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. “The work we did wasn't just about arrests. It was about uncovering the truth, no matter how cold or hidden it was.” Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . A Murder That Went Cold One of the true cases that inspired They Always Win revolves around Frank “Bobo” Marrapese, a notorious enforcer for the Patriarca crime family. The case centered on the 1975 murder of mob associate Richard “Dickie” Callei, who was shot inside Marrapese's Acorn Social Club on Providence's Federal Hill and buried near a golf course in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. That case went cold, until the relentless work of detectives like Pesare brought it back to life. “Marrapese was feared. He was brutal. But he wasn't above the law,” Pesare said. “We had to work those cold trails, use every angle. Eventually, we got there.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Marrapese, who later died in prison while serving time for murder, racketeering, and extortion, was part of a broader criminal network that ruled much of New England's underworld for decades. The Patriarca Family: Crime and Influence The Patriarca crime family, also known as the New England Mafia, has long been an institution in organized crime history. Founded under Raymond L.S. Patriarca, the organization held power throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. At its peak, the family included over 100 made men and thrived off illegal gambling, loan-sharking, pornography, and stolen goods trafficking. The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. While the family has fractured and declined, its influence and legacy still cast a long shadow over Rhode Island's law enforcement history. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Fiction Mirrors Fact. Anthony wrote two books about his experience, "They Always Win: Inspired by a True Story" and "Back in the Game: A Gino Peterson Novel", you can get more information about those books on Amazon, also be sure to check out his website. In They Always Win, protagonist Gino Peterson walks a razor's edge between loyalty and justice. “I wanted to tell a story that captures the emotional complexity,” says Pesare. “Gino's not just fighting the mob, he's fighting his own past.” Raised in the same neighborhoods as the people he later investigates, Gino's journey mirrors Pesare's own. The novel explores Gino's internal battle and the political red tape that threatens to derail major cases. It's a story as much about identity and sacrifice as it is about the law. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. And while it's fiction, the core truths are based in reality. “Some names are changed, sure,” Pesare shares, “but the tactics, the betrayals, the pressure, that's all real.” The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. Back in the Game In the sequel "Back in the Game", Gino Peterson is once again deep inside the criminal underworld, but this time, his enemy might be someone he once called a friend. A man from Gino's old neighborhood, resurfaces on the opposite side of the law. As both men wrestle with the need to belong and the consequences of their choices, their lives move toward a violent and inevitable collision. “It's a book about redemption, about proving yourself, to the world and to yourself,” Pesare says. Real Justice, Real Experience Pesare's law enforcement background is extensive. Beyond his time as Major in the Rhode Island State Police, he served as Chief of Police in Middletown, and was Dean of the School of Justice Studies at Roger Williams University. He holds degrees in justice administration and public administration, and earned a Juris Doctor from the New England School of Law. The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Now retired, Pesare continues to speak, write, and appear on news, podcasts, and social platforms to shed light on organized crime and the law enforcement heroes who fight against it.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/BCja5KnBz4kFormer Trooper Michael Proctor, the lead investigator in the Karen Read case, is appealing his termination from the Massachusetts State Police. He was fired in March after an internal investigation sustained allegations of misconduct, including derogatory text messages, sharing information outside the department, and drinking alcohol on duty.Proctor has civil service protections in his job, and his appeal is being supported and paid for by the police union. The union's involvement may also be to prevent his termination from setting a precedent for other officers. Proctor stated in an interview that he wants his job back, claiming that "no one's ever fired for personal texts."A procedural hearing for his appeal was held virtually on Tuesday as part of his appeal to the state's Civil Service Commission, an independent body that handles issues of state and local worker discipline. State Police requested the hearing be made public, which some see as a step towards transparency. A full in-person hearing is scheduled for mid-August.During the procedural hearing, lawyers for Proctor and the State Police indicated they had reached an agreement regarding evidence discovery, although it might take longer than anticipated. Proctor remains certified as an officer in Massachusetts, even without a law enforcement agency. The Karen Read case has also led to other changes within the Massachusetts State Police, including the reassignment of Proctor's supervisor, Yuri Bukhenik, and the relocation of another trooper involved in the case, David DiCicco. The Civil Service Commission will ultimately decide whether Trooper Proctor will get his job back.RESOURCESNBC 10 Boston Reporting - https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/michael-proctor-mass-state-police-appeal-hearing/3761846/Proctor's Post Trial Interview - https://www.youtube.com/live/i7IdKgUQoDU?t=7615sThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

For the first time in our Veterans Breakfast Club history, we're shining a spotlight on an essential but often invisible force in America's recent wars: military contractors. Join us for this important livestream conversation with Ron Farina, Marine Corps Vietnam veteran and author of Out of the Shadows, and a panel of former contractors who served alongside U.S. forces in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other combat zones under Department of Defense contracts. We also welcome Rob Kugler, a Marine Corps veteran, whose brother, Mike, served as a military contractor and was killed in Iraq in 2007. This profound loss propelled Rob into a mission of healing and storytelling. In his memoir, A Dog Named Beautiful, Rob chronicles his cross-country journey with his three-legged chocolate lab, Bella. This heartfelt narrative captures the essence of love, loss, and the road to recovery. Through his travels, Rob found solace and a renewed purpose, connecting with countless individuals and sharing stories that underscore the human cost of war. Also joining us are Traci Protzenko and Colette Protzenko Sparks, sisters of Paul Protzenko, who was killed in action on July 9, 2011 in Panjshir, Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom. Paul dedicated his life to the service of his country and its people. He proudly served in the Army's 82nd Airborne stationed overseas in Vicenza, Italy, retiring with the rank of Sergeant. Upon receiving an honorable discharge, he spent the next 21 years as a State Trooper. He earned the Life Saving Medal twice during his tenure. Immediately upon retirement from the State Police in 2009, he left for Afghanistan to become part of a Police Mentoring Team that trained the Afghan National Police Force. Paul was stationed for the better part of 2 years in the Panjshir Province of Afghanistan. During this time, he was instrumental in bringing the first Crime Scene Investigation Class to the Afghan National Police Force. This innovative class was well received and written up in the Army magazine, “Stars and Stripes.” Paul was killed on July 9, 2011 on the way to the Darah Police Station by an Afghan National Directorate of Security. This growing reliance on civilian contractors raises fundamental questions: Are contractors part of the military profession? Do they share the same code of conduct, sense of duty, and social obligation? How do they view their roles—and how do traditional military personnel view them? Research shows that many contractors come from law enforcement or prior military backgrounds, but often operate with different motivations, typically driven more by economic incentives than by the vocational calling traditionally associated with military service. Their training and operational directives are frequently dictated by government contracts, but they exist outside the chain of command and military legal structure. This “securitized management of violence” blurs the line between soldier and mercenary—and challenges long-held notions of military professionalism. Despite their integral role, contractors often return home to no welcome, no resources, and no community. They lack access to VA services, often receive no formal recognition, and are largely absent from public memory. As Ron Farina emphasizes in his work, these “invisible warriors” bear many of the same wounds as veterans—PTSD, moral injury, survivor's guilt—but without the support structure uniformed veterans rely on. This program will feature the voices of those contractors. They'll speak about their motivations, missions, relationships with military personnel, and the personal struggles they've faced in service and upon returning home. We'll also discuss the broader ethical, legal, and economic implications of America's unprecedented reliance on private military firms—some of which now rival the defense budgets of small nations. Let's give voice to those who served without a uniform but with no less courage, commitment, and consequence. We're grateful to UPMC for Life  for sponsoring this event!

The court addressed juror conduct issues, with a jurors making facial expressions and muttering. A stipulation was read regarding State Police troopers present at the autopsy, specifically noting Troopers Keefe and Watson were present, not Former Trooper Michael Proctor.Andre Porto, the Forensic Scientist, testimony revolved around DNA evidence found on a piece of glass and the tail light, with John O'Keefe's DNA and DNA from two unknown individuals being present. The defense strategy focused on questioning the thoroughness of the investigation and emphasizing that unknown DNA samples were not tested against other individuals of interest like Brian Higgins. Legal arguments arose regarding the chain of custody of evidence and delays in its submission. The judge ruled on objections and addressed issues related to rebuttal witnesses and ARCA expert testimony. There were discussions about new information and reports from experts causing potential time shifts and debates over whether this information was truly new or if it was previously disclosed.The day ended with testimony from Ash Vallier, a Forensic Scientist who pieced together the tail light, with discussions about which pieces fit and which did not. Some items from evidence bags were not fitting together mechanically and other items from different bags were fitting together. Defense Attorney, David Yannetti, crossed Vallier, highlighting potential issues with the chain of custody and who had access to evidence, particularly with Trooper Proctor. Trooper Michael Proctor was identified as submitting clothing evidence to the lab six weeks after the incident and the person who brought in the all of the pieces in the dash 7 series that fit together. Judge Cannone addressed concerns about new expert reports from Aperture, ruling that they were not grounds for undue surprise or prejudice but were ample ground for cross-examination by the defense. The Judge also addressed the ARCCA expert issue, allowing limited rebuttal testimony of Aperture only as to the new opinions by ARCCA from their May 7th report. The Judge stated the defense could recall witnesses under certain circumstances and addressed the long weekend break, stating it would give the defense the time they had requested.

Karen Read Trial: A Dog Named Chloe and a Video in the Garage The judge just opened the door to some of the defense's wildest claims — and shut it hard on others. With the Karen Read trial finally set to start Tuesday, Judge Beverly J. Cannone delivered a rapid-fire series of rulings that give us a sneak peek into what jurors will — and won't — hear once the courtroom doors swing open. And yeah, if you've been following this case, some of these decisions are kind of a big deal. Let's start with the defense's theory. They've been loud and clear from the start: Karen Read didn't kill Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, her boyfriend. Instead, they've said she's the fall girl in a much bigger cover-up — one involving other people at the house where O'Keefe's body was found... and possibly a German Shepherd named Chloe. No, seriously. Chloe the dog is part of this. O'Keefe was found dead in the snow outside 34 Fairview Road in Canton after a night out in January 2022. Prosecutors say Read hit him with her Lexus SUV, drove off, and left him to freeze to death. They've charged her with second-degree murder, motor vehicle manslaughter while intoxicated, and leaving the scene of an accident that caused death. But the defense says O'Keefe was already hurt or killed inside the house — and then dumped in the snow to make it look like a hit-and-run. And they've pointed to Chloe the dog as a possible source of some of the injuries on O'Keefe's body. Judge Cannone's latest rulings address how far both sides can go with this theory in court. First, the Chloe angle. The prosecution had an expert, Dr. James Crosby, lined up to say that a dog couldn't have caused the injuries found on O'Keefe's arm. But Cannone said hold up — Crosby can testify about dog anatomy, even Chloe's specific jaw structure and measurements, but he can't outright say Chloe's off the hook. That leaves the door open just enough for the defense to argue their theory, while still limiting how far the prosecution can shut it down. Then there's the garage video. The defense claims there's footage from the Canton Police Department's sallyport — basically a secured garage — that could show a State Police trooper tampering with Read's SUV. They believe someone might've messed with the taillight to make it look like the vehicle had been involved in the crash that allegedly killed O'Keefe. Cannone's ruling? The defense can bring in an expert to extract a forensically sound copy of that one specific video file. But they can't go on a fishing expedition through the entire Canton Police Department's detective file. So they'll get their footage — and if that video shows anything sketchy, it could become a cornerstone of their argument. Also getting the green light: defense expert Garrett Wing. Cannone said Wing's got enough experience to offer useful input on certain disputed issues — though she didn't spell out which ones. Still, it's another tool for the defense to try to chip away at the prosecution's version of events. On the flip side, the judge laid down some hard deadlines for the defense. By 5 p.m. Friday, they have to hand over all their evidence related to two experts from a forensic firm called ARCCA — the same firm that testified during the previous trial, which ended in a mistrial. And this time, they have to say if these experts are getting paid — something they conveniently left out last time around. They've also got until Monday to disclose any testing the experts have done, are doing, or are even thinking about doing. In short, the judge isn't letting the defense surprise anyone in the middle of trial. Play your cards now, or don't play them at all. So, as the courtroom preps for opening statements, here's what we know: the jury will hear about Chloe. They'll see the garage video — if it shows anything. And the defense will have a little more room to make their case about a cover-up. But Cannone's keeping the reins tight. This trial is going to be a showdown. #KarenReadTrial #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeOrCoverup Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
