Buffalo judge denies defense plea in bribery case
State Supreme Court Justice George H. Rowe denied motions for directed verdicts in the Buffalo probe of John E. Rowek and James J. Caputo. The defense argued lack of prima facie proof as the state accused them of bribery extortion conspiracy and unlawful fees related to a $100 000 stash fund tied to pinball distributors. A defense witness testified Caputo’s bank account showed 550 000 unaccounted for by business transactions.
