RESEARCH NOTES:
Before it was known as Delaware North, the global Buffalo-based concessioner called itself Emprise. A reporter at the time who relentlessly investigated the company and its business practices, Don Bolles, was murdered in a car bombing in 1976.
Delaware North was once known as Emprise, but they changed their name after a federal jury racketeering conviction in 1972; where they were found guilty of concealing the mafia’s ownership of the Frontier Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Arizona sports journalist Don Bolles testified in court against Emprise after investigating their long term sports stadium contracts, which Bolles found to be suspicious and riddled with mafia related activity. Four years later, Don Bolles was assassinated by a car bomb. As he lay dying, his final words were “Emprise…Mafia…” Definitely a good reason to rebrand the company after that fiasco.
Years back, in 2017, a slew of arrests, including of alleged members and associates of the Gambino and Bonanno crime families as part of a sweeping investigation into the fentanyl trade in Canada and New York, seemed to highlight the fact that the Buffalo crime family was alive and well.
Feds Arrest Todaro Nephew As Probe Into Buffalo Mafia Heats Up
By Ed Scarpo Tuesday, March 02, 2021
The nephew of the alleged boss of the (possibly resurging) Buffalo Cosa Nostra family was arrested this week and indicted for bribing a former DEA agent to help stymie law enforcement. The indictment also references “sex trafficking” and efforts to distribute 1,000 kilograms of marijuana and cocaine on the streets of Western New York.
They also say that Gerace bribed a DEA agent into protecting his establishment. The agent, Joseph Bongiovanni, is alleged to have accepted a quarter of a million dollars in bribes as part of the scheme. Bongiovanni has pleaded not guilty to the charges
As US Attorney for the Western District of New York, Hochul turned the focus of his organized crime task force toward aggressive prosecution of drugs and street crime using federal racketeering laws and away from sophisticated organized crime (including corporate crime—unlike Manhattan’s Preet Bharara, Hochul showed little interest throughout his tenure in pursuing these prosecutions). Coincidentally, Hochul is now working for a family that once owned a corporate conglomerate, Emprise, that was convicted of federal racketeering charges in the 1970s.

Every NFL Stadium Is a FEMA Camp in Hiding

FEMA to Open Community Vaccination Center at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium Pipkin Building on April 7
The Vallecas Stadium concentration camp appears to have been a temporary holding facility and execution site. Testimonials from survivors confirm that the camp was open for between two and four weeks, and that many people held here died in this short time from disease, starvation and the cold, as well as maltreatment, torture and executions.
THREE OF MADRID’S FOOTBALL STADIUMS WERE ONCE FRANCOIST CONCENTRATION CAMPS.
