Burt Reynolds was 82 and an old Mafia trick in Chinatown

Burt Reynolds has died at age 82. He is remembered for many show business guises but his epic outdoors portrayal in Deliverance made him truly famous first. Next, a court appearance for the couple who raised $400,000 on GoFundMe for a down-and-out veteran. But where’s the money? Then, more than a century ago organized criminals called the Black Hand (Mafia) would roam modest neighborhoods telling retailers “It would be awful if something happened to your nice store.” But the age of the security cameras and honest cops  has cast a new light on such perps. Lastly, a fascinating pursuit by a civilian of a drunk driver in New Jersey. Scary stuff.
