Hey isn't the Pearl restaurant the place that Justice's owner was rumored to have a stake in?
Yep.
Check this out:
Block Shopper
The Vorriases sold the house to this guy.
I was just going to ask -
OMG.
Drug dealers typically have their homes and themselves surrounded by pit bulls - they're so paranoid all the time. Justice was supposed to be a "guard dog and not treated as a pet.
Looks like Karma's going to kick some behinds! YEAH!
Ya' know what's funny - with all the publicity Justice's neglect received - this guy must've been so scared that someone would find out what was really going on at Pearl's. Vorriases may have sold to this sh*thead to get away from all the prying eyes.
I'm surprised really that the cops didn't pick up on this. No "sting" operations at Pearl? - hmmmmmm whas'up with that?
This guy also donated $200 to Paul Vallone on June 3rd 2009.Check it out on NYS Board of Elections,Discolsure reports.
"Vorriases may have sold to this sh*thead to get away from all the prying eyes."
No, it was a house in Richmond Hill that they sold to him. The house where they had Justice was in the Auburndale area
What "Justice" are you all referring to?
