Thank you for responses.

I no at that time there were a lot of illegal wiretaps going on. Roemer talks about that in his book about Tony Accardo and that was Chicago so you no that it was being done in New York as well. Problem was, they couldn't be used in court. But they got a lot of valuable information that would help in the coming years.
