This page is limited to federal records. The role line is a Senate subcommittee staff member's summary of FBI affidavits and states what the Government's evidence was. It is not a court finding. The Eighth Circuit says only that he died before the Tropicana trial, and no date of death is stated in the opinions opened for this page. The skimming accounts below are the Government's evidence as the courts summarize it.
