Former Police Officer Held as Aide in Racket
A former New York Police Department officer, James Reardon 33, held under guard, faces accusations of running a 20 million dollar annual gambling syndicate while its boss traveled to California. Reardon allegedly replaced a major bookie and used a fake name to access a safe deposit box as graft probes widen. Senator Kefauver and investigators link New Jersey and New York gambling networks as hearings broaden.
