Rinella slaying linked to tax probe and Copacabana funding
Rinella Suave Sam, 49, ex convict under indictment for income tax evasion, was shot dead outside his Chicago home by two gunmen. Police probe ties the slaying to disclosures about financing a Loop nightclub with at least 100000 dollars and 5200 dollar yearly police captain involvement. Former police captain Thomas J. Duffy, 66, denied knowledge of the murder and acknowledged investments in the Copacabana venture which failed after six months. State and federal investigators pursue discrepancies in Rinella's tax filings for 1945 and 1946, while a separate farm conference and Oregon population ranking appear in brief items.
