In reply to the discussion: Joe McKnight's shooter, Ronald Gasser, released from custody [View all]Here's one that's local, for me. The victim ran his Pro Football playing cousin's official steeler t-shirt franchise, and the hit was pulled by 2 actual cops, on behalf of a Greek mobster, who wanted the lot the victim's home was on, for a large 2 block real estate development deal he was working on. The main cop/hitman was found "not guilty", and was promoted to Lt. The dead man's cousin was traded to another team.

Is it "hitmen cooperating with the police", when the police are the hitmen? Interesting philosophical question.
