Moonshine protection case implicates Levy sheriff Robbins
FBI agent testified he saw George T. Robbins accept 25 dollars as protection money from Claude Wood acting for the moonshine case.

Robbins asked 1.50 dollars per barrel for protection, with initial 1 dollar per barrel later raised, as he and associates face conspiracy charges.
