Scavo is fighting the government’s allegations that he was running a private security company through the Melrose Park Police Department. I arrived at his courtroom at roughly 11:00 AM. As soon as I entered the room, Scavo and I locked eyes for a couple of seconds. I offered Vito a smile when I saw him, but not as big a smile as I offered Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephen Andersson. Mr. Andersson is a phenomenal prosecutor. And I am pleased that he is working on the Scavo case. Mr. Andersson has a wealth of knowledge on matters involving Melrose Park. If his boss, Mr. Fitzgerald, had anything to do with assigning the Scavo case to Mr. Andersson, I applaud Mr. Fitzgerald for making a great decision.
I am sorry that I missed the testimony of Melrose Park Police Lt. Joseph Urso. I once filed a complaint against Urso’s father, Cook County Judge Joe Urso, for allegedly having unethical involvement in a case lodged against me by Jack P. Cerone. What I find very interesting about Lt. Urso’s cooperation with the government is, in my opinion, if it were not for Chicago Outfit Boss Joe Aiuppa, both Ursos might be working as menial laborers instead of having prestigious jobs.
Mr. Andersson was the prosecutor when my late friend Buddy Ciotti was dealing with his federal indictment on gambling-related charges. The day that Buddy was sentenced was the first time that I had the chance of seeing Mr. Andersson. I recall his hair being a little longer back then. I like his hairstyle is much better now.

Mr. or Mrs. Anonymous,
Call it hatred if you will, I call it frustration. I am frustrated with the people that helped complicate my life.
Sincerely,
Joseph Fosco
Dear Joe Fosco,
I read your bio too. Unlike the cowardly remark form the ‘anonymous’ peanut gallery, I think that you are a very generous person, with giving your time to the community and trying to prevent crime. Keep up the good work. We should have more people like you!

Pretty bad when Melrose Police Chief Mr Scavos current trial – makes near FRONT PAGE NEWS “The Oranges are There ” of Melrose Park Pioneer press ! When currently a DRUG PUSHING DOCTOR IN MELROSE PARK continues to care and treat patients with illegal narcotics !
MELROSE PARK CLINC
FBI should really focus more on closing this man down. And placing a nice large article on how they did it ! Before innocent patients DIE at the health service of Dr. Giachinno ! PILL PUSHER I do agree that what Mr Scavo did was wrong, RACKETEERING & EXTORTION. I would think that a DRUG PUSHING DOCTOR & SAVING LIVES in Melrose Park would be priority
Dear Mike,
I agree with you. Law enforcement should care more about the behavior of a Pusher MD than a greedy police chief. Although, I am confident that Law enforcement will bring Giacchino to justice in the near future.
I read your bio Mr. Fosco. For a person that is so religious you certainly spew the hatred don’t you? Why so hypocritical??
Word has just come down from Vito Scavo’s sentencing hearing. He has gotten six years, a 5,000 dollar fine and a 12,600 dollar restitution to Allied Waste. Forfeiture hearing was continued to Friday the 26th at 10:00 am. More information in an article to follow.
Dear Joe,
Anything on the forfeiture hearing yet?
One of my sources told me the judge wants to hear from the IRS as to how they concluded what Scavo cheated them. The judge thinks she is on appellate court. lol.
