“IN BOXING, WE HAVE OUR OWN LAWS”
Phoenix, AZ– The quote above was Peter McKinn talking to the Maricopa County Organized Crime Unit after his arrest a fortnight ago. To bring you up to date, the Phoenix promoter and ex-Top Rank front man McKinn, pictured all alone awaiting his arraignment Thursday on Felony charges of Fraud, Grand Theft, Perjury, Forgery, as well as Conspiracy, has told law enforcement officials that the receipt for $5,000 cash he said was signed by “Yory Boy” Campas’ manager Joe Diaz was bogus, as well as the affidavit his flunky Gabe Esqueda filed stating he saw Diaz sign it. Before Peter admitted such, we knew he was a liar as the Phoenix PD and handwriting expert William Flynn, both said Diaz’ name had been forged!
DOES PETER LIKE STRIPED SUITS & MEN?
McKinn is looking at ten plus years in prison, thus he has given up Maricopa County Supervisor and former Arizona Athletic Commission chair Mary Rose Wilcox, her husband Earl, who at the time he interfered in the criminal case against McKinn, was an aide to then Governor Janet Napolitano, John Montano, ex-Asst Boxing Director, and here’s what has Top Rank’s attorneys on call for, Bruce Trampler, their matchmaker. Most of you remember the Operation Matchbox case against Bob Arum’s Top Rank imploding a few years ago. Now the FBI hopes to get a second bite at the criminal apple that we alleged Top Rank was.
JOHN MONTANO TO BE ARRESTED THIS WEEK?
My sources in Phoenix tell me that John Montano, the ex-Asst. Director of the Boxing Commission is supposedly going to be arrested this week. Having retired from his position in late September, Montano is said to be a target of both the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Organized Crime Unit in addition to the FBI. People close to the case say that McKinn has been singing like Diana Ross sans The Supremes and that he has implicated Montano, both Wilcox’s, Trampler, and others under the Top Rank umbrella.
MARY ROSE WILL RESIGN SOON I’M TOLD
The piece of s*it that is Mary Rose Wilcox, again confidential sources say she will be forced to resign her position as County Supervisor’s in the coming days. The excuse she will put forth is that she needs to help with her defense. Her husband Earl Wilcox, he too will be indicted and charged with Felonies that include tampering with a Judge. McKinn is fingering Trampler and company I’m told in order for the FBI to get that second crack at Top Rank.
CAN BRUCE TRAMPLER SURVIVE THIS TIME?
Trampler is not a good candidate for prison. A pussy at heart, Trampler will be involved in the third set of indictments my sources indicate. Having aged decades in months when Operation Matchbox was going on, if I were Trampler’s relatives, I’d have him on a 24 hour “suicide watch.” Other turds in the Top Rank toilet, namely house manager Cameron Dunkin, VP Todd du Beof, Arum’s stepson, are said to be facing potential charges. Like Trampler, PR guy Lee Samuels is a tough guy NOT! McKinn has apparently given up the whole Top Rank enchilada to avoid an extended prison stint. Hey Lee, after Arum fired your dumb ass, you should have never came back!
TOP RANK WAS NEVER VINDICATED BY FBI
The FBI dropped their case because of the involvement of dirty cops and political heat. In closing, if the aforementioned allegations are proven, all the money Top Rank has will not be enough to stop the prosecution of staff and corporate officers. Back to McKinn’s quote, “In Boxing We Have Our Own Laws.” Well guess what Peter, better get used to Arizona laws and that of the United States of America. I’ll give the aforementioned the same advice I would McKinn, “I hope you like looking at naked men.”
DIAZ SAYS 15ROUNDS.COM SCRIBE TOOK DRUGS/WHORES FOR COVERAGE
In an interview on last night’s edition of ”Ring Talk Radio,” Joe Diaz said that ex-Arizona Republic scribe, a current writer for the 15 Rounds.com website, Norm Frauenheim received drugs and prostitutes from Top Rank for favorable coverage. That audio interview will be available midday here at RingTalk.com.
ONE MORE SHOT AT THE BOXING MEDIA
For the writers, websites and news organizations, notably the biggest (in a number of ways) Dan Rafael of ESPN.com, and Fright News, I hope you all choke on chicken bones because of the manner in which you treated this story!
SPECIAL THANKS TO JOSH BERNSTEIN & ABC TV 15!
While I had proven this same case prior, it was the outstanding work of ABC TV’s Josh Bernstein in Phoenix that resurrected all of this. Thanks Josh!
