Ousted police chief recalls Binaggio bribe offer in Missouri
TOSSED IT BACK a City May 4 18 R. Roberts ousted police commissioner said today he did not know the amount in a roll of bills offered last summer by Charles Binaggio to influence policing here in exchange for easing enforcement. Cohn recalled four meetings in Jefferson City in which Binaggio offered political influence for leniency. He described the two inch diameter roll but could not confirm denominations in the dark outside his home. Cohn, back from Jefferson City, considered legal action to challenge his removal by Gov Forrest Smith and discussed options with his attorney Walter A. Raymond. He said the governor offered another appointment but he declined usage of the supreme court and public service. He notified the governor and then spoke with several aides and officials including Elmo Hunter, Leo Schwartz, and Lyman Feld.
