Twan's shot at freedom - The Outfit on trial

Twan's shot at freedom

| | Comments (10) | TrackBacks (0)

Anthony "Twan" Doyle had his bond revoked after the jury found him guilty of racketeering conspiracy in the Famly Secrets case.

Federal prosecutor Mitch Mars argued that Doyle was convicted of a crime of violence.

Namely, Doyle was a juice loan collector for Frank Calabrese Sr. and discussed dealing with a snitch violently.

Doyle's attorney, Ralph Meczyk, protested, saying there was no evidence Doyle ever engaged in any violence at all.

U.S. District Judge James Zagel wasn't buying it and revoked Doyle's bond.

But Zagel held out a strand of hope.

Doyle's wife is seriously ill, and Doyle is the one who takes care of her, Meczyk argued.

Zagel decided to hold a hearing Wednesday to find out more about this and hear some evidence about the issue.

Plus, he wanted to see if any of Doyle's friends or family were willing to post their homes to add to his bond and make it less likely he would flee.

If he fled, of course, the people who posted their homes would lose them.

I love this guy Doyle, use his wife to stay out of custody. Bet the guys in jail can't wait to meet the crook cop...

Crooks can't wait to meet twan? Twan would break any and all the heads of any inmate that even looks at him wrong.

"Crooks can't wait to meet twan? Twan would break any and all the heads of any inmate that even looks at him wrong."

Check the facts PAL!

Yeah your right because he will most likely be in Protective Custody or in a Club FED facility! lol!

I would love to see him end up in general population with the Folks and the People, I bet there more then a few chicago street gangs that would love to have Officer Doyle on deck.

I bet its even save to say that a few kites have been sent out on this matter & the last time I checked its the gangs that RUN the Prision systems.

All that brigdeport juice won't hold any type of respect in the joints PAL! Just ask Frank "Toots" Caruso Jr. how he had to pay money to the Gangster Dicisples to protect his son in the joint.

Let me tell you he is lucky his daddy looked out for him because he would have been the a prison B*$H!

Maybe your the one who should get your facts straight Peter. You obviously dont have a clue what your talking about.

You must be one of those guys who talks about prison but has never been there. Cause if you were, you wouldn't use words like B#$#H.

As for Frank Jr. he is more than capable of handling himself.
Actually, a very nice guy who caught the blame for something he didnt do, and shouldnt have been there in the first place.

And so what if his father did look out for him? Isnt that what fathers are supposed to do? Maybe you didnt receive enough attention from your father as a child, or maybe he gave you a little too much (if ya know what I mean)

Hay Sal,
Doyle's going to get shook down like any other outfit guy in the joint.

They don't brag about that in the wire taps or when they get out becuase it makes them look like the cowards they really are.

The A.B. got Gotti in Marion so what thinks some former punk cop will get a pass? You really think this puck will have more juice?

LOL,LOL and LOLLLLL

For all you guys out there threatening Twan- Officer Doyle- with some of Chicago gang members. Keep in mind that Twan hung out on 24th and 26th street not far from where alot of the gang members developed.

Back then alot of the gang members hung out on 18th street/ Halsted, Maxell Street etc. If these gang members are smart they'll welcome him and treat him as one of thier own. If they don't Twan will start his own gang and he will becomne the leader of the pack. Believe me this guy could stop bullits!!!!

i am one of the people that know him the best do not make threats you cant keep

twan is my father ill stick by him through thick and thin and by the way im his other daughter
