Jury delivers split verdict against NY cigarette dealer
By Frank Eltman
Central Islip, New York (AP) The owner of an Indian reservation smoke shop that prosecutors claim is a major supplier of black market cigarettes was convicted of racketeering conspiracy May 1, but acquitted of charges that he waged a campaign of arson and murder to protect his multimillion dollar business. A federal jury on Long Island deliberated off and on for a month before delivering the split verdict in the case of Mastic cigarette dealer Rodney Morrison. The marathon trial began in November. |
