...know gas is expensive when the Florida Lottery starts doling out prizes in the form of gas cards. But here's another sign of the times: fear of thieves siphoning fuel has led to a surge in the sale of locking gas caps. Stant Manufacturing, a leading gas-cap maker, has already sold more locking caps in the first six months of this year--some 1.3 million--than in all of 2007. Yes, these locks can be jimmied, but New York City locksmith Frank Persico thinks they're still worth it. "You have to put time and effort into actually...
...seem almost ludicrous if it weren't for their viciousness. A scenario that called for running Kerrigan's car off the road was rejected because the team was afraid that their own "beater car" might be disabled and strand them at the scene of the crime. The hitman, Shane Stant, roamed Cape Cod in a vain attempt to find his quarry. She wasn't there, though Gillooly claims that Harding herself made phone calls to get the times of Kerrigan's practices. When Stant finally scored in Detroit, Eckardt boasted to Gillooly that Stant had hit Kerrigan six times over...
Gillooly has charged that Harding obtained the name of Kerrigan's Cape Cod training rink, the place where hitman Shane Stant said he stalked Kerrigan before pursuing her to Detroit. Gillooly testified that Harding, after listening to a message from Marano, told him the name of Kerrigan's rink sounded something like "Toby Can." Later, Gillooly claimed, he heard Harding tell Marano by phone, "Spell it out," and watched her write "Tony Kent Arena" on a piece of paper...
Suspicions about Harding's role surround a failed plan that predated the Jan. 6 attack in Detroit. Three of the arrested men -- Eckardt; hit man Shane Stant, 22; and getaway driver Derrick Smith, 29 -- have told investigators that during the final days of 1993, they conspired with Gillooly to attack Kerrigan while she trained at the Tony Kent Arena on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. An 11-page affidavit, prepared by the Multnomah County sheriff's office in Oregon and made public last week, states that Eckardt initially claimed that Harding did not know about the plot. But under two days...
...rest of the affidavit, which draws on the confessions signed by Eckardt, Stant and Smith, lays out a series of verbal and money transactions that implicate Gillooly but not Harding. All three co-conspirators say they met with Gillooly in Portland in late December; two of them say a price of $6,500 was set for Stant and Smith to injure Kerrigan. Eckardt and Smith concur that Smith was paid $2,000 on the spot, with bills supplied by Gillooly. Gillooly's bank records indicate that he made three withdrawals totaling $9,000 between Dec. 27 and Jan. 6. Western...
