Mafia and Pagan associates linked to Delco informant slaying

FBI sources say the Linwood DEA informant Christopher Walker, 22, found bullet ridden in a Delaware grave May 24, may have been silenced by Pagan motorcycle gang and La Cosa Nostra associates. Walker had worn a wire in a 1983 meth case against Vincent Perry, owner of Summit Beef Co. in Linwood, who was later jailed. Authorities probe ties between Perry, mob, and bikers as they trace drug distribution from Pagans to mob associates. The investigation, aided by Delaware officials and local narcotics squads, continues as state and county prosecutors pursue leads. Walker vanished in July 1963 and worked undercover for the DEA.
