A federal judge not only suggested on Wednesday that retired Chicago cop Anthony "Twan" Doyle lied when he took the stand in his own defense in the Family Secrets mob trial.Just think,in Chicago,someone like Mr. Doyle was allowed to own and walk around with a gun while honest citizens weren't.
U.S. District Judge James Zagel also questioned Doyle's overall judgment because he actually expected a jury would believe him.
Retired Chicago police officer Anthony Doyle and four other men, all charged with racketeering conspiracy, were convicted Monday of taking part in what prosecutors described as decades of extortion, loan sharking and murder.
Given Doyle's poor judgment, Zagel declined to release Doyle on bond, two days after he was convicted in the Family Secrets case of racketeering and was taken into custody.
Doyle helped the Outfit to track down a mob snitch and kept reputed mob killer Frank Calabrese Sr. posted on evidence linked to an Outfit murder.
