Demands Convictions In Buffalo Pinball Probe
In Buffalo, the state prosecutor seeks convictions of License Director John P. Rollek and Democratic committeeman John J. Caputo on conspiracy bribery and related charges. The case ties to a 1950 pinball distributor slush fund, with grand jury findings of $90,000 to $100,000 paid, while defense argues lack of corroborating evidence. A judge plans to give instructions to the jury after closing summations. Also, a Charleston, SC item reports a nine month old baby saved when a building collapsed, the wall’s push shielding the crib in the adjacent room.
