Making your neighborhood safer begins with
you... and your neighbors.
The top-most weapon against crime is a vigilant
community and SE Michigan Law Enforcement
officials are increasingly relying upon folks –
like you and your neighbors – to be their eyes
and ears on the streets.
By working with Crime Stoppers of Michigan,
police are noting record-breaking successful
apprehension of repeat offenders. In 2015
thus far, police report a 24% increase in
successful prosecutions based on anonymous
tips made through Crime Stoppers of
Michigan. More than 7,000 tips were reported
to CSM during 2014.
Rewards to tipsters have increased too. Since
Jan. 1, 2014, Crime Stoppers of Michigan has
awarded more than $160,000 to its tipsters.
Those rewards vary from $2,500 for homicides,
fatal hit-and-runs, and missing, endangered
people to $1,000 (maximum) for other crimes
and law enforcement situations. In 2013, CSM
paid $88,230 in rewards for tips that led to
arrests.
Although the cash rewards are given
anonymously, many tipsters decline rewards.
They tell Crime Stoppers their only reason for
calling the tip line is to make their community
safer for their families and friends.
When an anonymous tip is reported,
CSM forwards that information to the law
enforcement agency which has jurisdiction for
the incident. After the investigation is completed
and the agency confirms the tip led to the arrest,
that anonymous tipster becomes eligible for the
appropriate reward.

4. Tips reported from outside the immediate area are forwarded by Crime
Stoppers of Michigan.
In addition to working closely with local police, CSM provides several
other services to help combat crime and to bring criminals to justice. It
creates posters and door-hangers to publicize crimes in specific areas
or regions. It posts “wanted” photos and information on its website:
www.1800speakup.org. Often Crime Stoppers directly informs the
media and holds press conferences about specific cases. This can offer
families and neighborhoods a way to personalize the crimes and ask for
the community’s help.
Crime Stoppers’ programs include:
• Project Safe Campus, which empowers the student body to monitor
criminal activity within itwws school.
• Project Good Samaritan, a faith-based program utilizing churches
and congregations to spread the word about safer communities and the
CSM mission.
• Prison Program, a special tip line for prisoners to anonymously
submit tips by routing around a monitored phone system. A DVD of
unsolved cases runs in all 22 Michigan prisons and in many of the state’s
83 county lockups.
Michigan Crime Stoppers is growing its role with the law enforcement
efforts in Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Genesee, St. Clair, Washtenaw,
Livingston and Monroe Counties. (You’ll read more about the history
of this Southeast Michigan organization in future editions of MI Most
Wanted.)

Three most Common Questions:
AsaCriminalDefenseAttorney,thethreemost
common questions I get are: what happens if I
am arrested, what is the right to remain silent,
and can the police search. This article attempts
to highlight the most important points of
those difficult questions but is in no way
comprehensive and it is important to note that
each case is different. If you have questions
on how the points in this article apply to the
facts of you case please seek the advice of an
attorney.
What happens if I am arrested?
When someone is arrested, it is always an
unexpected event. Family members and
friends are left to search quickly to answer
questions and to help get their loved one out
of jail.
A person can be arrested and then released
with charges filed at a later date, or no charges
filed at all (which can still leave a person
with an arrest record). A person can also be
arrested and formally charged. If you are
arrested and charged with breaking a criminal
law in Michigan, you will be taken for an
initial appearance before a magistrate called
an arraignment. This may occur in person or
by video and it is when the court advises you
of the formal charge and maximum possible
penalties. Bond is then set to assure future
appearances in court. This is not time to
discuss the merits of your case with the Judge.
The bond may be a secured bond, where cash
or property must be posted for release, or
unsecured, requiring no cash or property to
be posted for release. If a defendant cannot
post a secured bond they may be incarcerated
pending their next appearance in court. If
bond is posted or unsecured, they will remain
free pending appearance at their next court
date. In felony cases, the next appearance is a
probable cause conference and generally must
occur not less than 7 days and not more than
14 days of the arraignment. MCL 766.4(1). In
misdemeanor cases, the next appearance is a
pretrial conference and generally will occur
within 2-3 weeks of your arrest.
Whether you are formally charged or not, it
is important to take immediate action after an
arrest to protect your rights. In most situations
delay will lead to the destruction of valuable
evidence and a less favorable outcome.
Retaining an attorney to preserve evidence
and conduct an investigation after an arrest
will place you in the best position to challenge
any future charges.
Whatistherighttoremainsilent?
Just that. An absolute right to say nothing if a
person is in custody and is being questioned
by police. It is in your best interest to invoke
that right and say nothing until you have a
criminal defense attorney present. The police
may legally use various tactics in this setting in
an attempt to get a suspect to admit to a crime
or make incriminating statements. These
tactics may include appealing to a person’s
guilt or conscience, engaging in ploys like
‘good-cop/bad-cop’, lying about the evidence
against the person, making promises of
leniency or release if the suspect confesses to
a crime, or outright intimidation. This is such
an inherently coercive setting for a person that
the U.S. Supreme Court ordered that the now-
famous Miranda warnings be read to a person
before the questioning process begins. You
have the right to remain silent. Everything you
say will be used against you. You have the right
to a lawyer. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one
will be appointed to you.
Despite the warnings, people often ignore
these rights and give incriminating statements
to police that they later say are false,
inaccurate, or the result of abuse, coercion or
intimidation. Also, people often forget that
any communication or information given to
police is a statement – not just a written and
signed statement. These statements will be
used against a person in anyway they can be–
just like the warning says.
Can the police search me, or my
property?
This is a common question that does not have
an easy answer. Bottom line: sometimes they
can, sometimes they can’t. Generally, police
must have a search warrant, supported by
probable cause and reviewed and authorized
in advance by a magistrate, to search a person,
a person’s home, office or car, or a person’s
private belongings. Probable cause is evidence
thatwouldleadareasonablepersontoconclude
that a crime has probably been committed or
illegal items (contraband) probably exists.
However, there are many exceptions to this
warrant requirement. The main exceptions are
listed below:
Search After Arrest – The police are
authorized to fully search a person and their
belongings, and the area surrounding him
without a warrant, if that person is legitimately
placed under arrest.
Investigative Detention and Frisk – The
police may temporarily stop a person and
ask questions without a warrant if they have
reasonable suspicion to believe that person
may be committing a crime. Investigative
detentions, while common, must be supported
by evidence that the person is doing something
wrong. Reasonable suspicion means the police
can point to specific observations that would
cause a reasonable person to believe that a
crime or traffic violation may be occurring.

Former Prosecuting Attorney
6. MI MOST WANTED | Page 6
Thisdetentionmustbebrief,onlyforthepurposeofashortinvestigation.
The person is not free to leave, and may be questioned regarding his
identity and his purpose. The person may not be placed under arrest or
transported to a station unless police are satisfied that probable cause
exists to arrest the person. Also, if police have reasonable suspicion to
believe that the person being detained is armed, the police can conduct
a pat-down frisk of the person’s clothing to check for weapons.
Consent Search – The police can always ask permission to search a
person or his stuff without a warrant, and the person is always free to
consent to – or give permission for – a search. Police are trained in
getting a person to give consent even when there is no probable cause
or reasonable suspicion to believe a crime has occurred. People often
think that they cannot refuse an officer’s request to search. If the police
ask for permission, they probably need it. If they had a warrant or if a
different exception to the warrant requirement existed, they would not
ask – they would go ahead and search.
Plain View – Police are authorized to seize illegal items without a
warrant when those items are in the plain view of an officer, and that
officer has the legal authority to be where he is. Example: police officer
stops a car for speeding and while talking to the driver, he sees a gun in
the back seat – he may take the gun without a warrant.
Emergency Circumstances – Police are authorized to enter areas
and conduct a search without a warrant when they have a reasonable
belief that such aid is immediately necessary to protect the public from
danger.
Automobile Exception – If the police have probable cause to belief that
contraband is in a car, they may search the car without a warrant.
Conclusion:
An encounter with law enforcement is an uncomfortable experience
to say the least. If an arrest occurs, remember this is not the time to
proclaim your innocence or make legal arguments. The arresting officer
will most likely have audio and video recording of the event and the
statements you make may be admissible in court regardless of whether
or not you have been read your Miranda warnings. Be courteous to the
officer and attempt to comply with their every request or you may face
additional charges. Upon release contact a competent criminal defense
attorney to assist you with the matter.

Nothing in this state’s history
of crime compares with the
Detroit Purple Gang in literature,
newspapers and song. This
“Detroit Jewish mob” terrorized
the country, being blamed for the
St. Valentine’s Day murders in
Chicago, hits in Florida and the
assassination of both a Michigan
senator and a popular radio
commentator.
Although police, prosecutors and
some media wanted the public to
believe the Purples were wiped out
in the 1930s, “word on the street”
and history shows the gang was
never really eradicated… it just
evolved by going underground
and “straight.” (More on that in
the next part of this series.
Certainly, the gang’s vicious
reputation at the height of
Prohibition was a precursor to
the gang violence of Detroit in
the 1980s and 1990s. More than
500 murders were credited to the
Purples alone in the five years
between 1927 and 1932.
During Prohibition, the gang used
illegal liquor profits to build an
organization that was feared from
California and Florida to New
York and Chicago. The Purples
were said to organize multi-
vehicle convoys of hooch across a
frozen Lake St. Clair and to peddle
crime up into Canada.
Their ruthless protection of
these rackets shocked citizens in
Windsor, Ontario on May, 13,
1924, when The Border Cities Star
announced that two prominent
Canadians had been found dead
in the Detroit River. A passing
Windsor policeman reported
seeing their car headlights on
under water in the river.
Although the newspaper didn’t
call the deaths of Ed Mullins and
Michigan’s colorful criminal past:

Detective Greg MacAleese, in Albuquerque,
N.M., was frustrated that in six weeks of
investigation, no solution was in sight for a
senseless murder at a gas station.
In July, 1976, Michael Carmen was working an
extra night shift for a colleague and friend who
needed the night off. Michael was a University
of New Mexico student who wanted the extra
hours – he was two weeks away from marrying
his high school sweetheart.
That dark Friday night proved fateful. Two
men robbed the gas station and – for no
apparent reason – fired a shotgun into
Michael’s abdomen. The UNM student fought
to survive; he lived four hours before he died
on the hospital’s operating table. He struggled
to describe to police officers who it was that
shot him, but he never got the chance.
It was one of the most senseless murders he’d
ever seen, thought Detective Greg MacAleese
who was one of the detectives assigned to the
case. He told Carmen’s mother that he would
avenge her son’s death and bring the killer or
killers to justice.
But six weeks of investigation brought police
no closer to solving the murder.
Then, MacAleese got an idea.
He approached the general manager of KOAT-
TV in Albuquerque and asked if they could
re-enact the crime for one of their news casts.
Somewhere, there must be an eyewitness to the
murder, MacAleese explained to the television
exec. If such a witness existed, using the media
to locate him or her would be the best idea.
The detective reasoned that a reenactment
might trigger the witness who might have
seen something but not understood fully the
importance of what he or she saw.
On Sept. 8, 1976, the first Carmen-murder
reenactment was aired.
The next morning, a young man called to say
he had seen the newscast and remembered
some very important information…
Carmen’s murder was solved!
Using that tip, the two culprits were brought
to justice. In addition, the broadcast triggered
a number of other citizens to volunteer
information to help solve other recent crimes.
Local businesses and other police agencies
followed up and formed what became Crime
Stoppers throughout the U.S.A. and 21 other
countries.
Culprit nabbed at last!
Senseless murder, pursued by vigilant cop,
gave rise to Crime Stoppers idea for U.S.A.

W. C. Stuart murders at that time,
another headline on the same
front page says, “High liquor cost
proves incentive to bootleggers.”
Mullins Family lore claims the
men were victims of the Purple
Gang’s rum running across the
Detroit River.
Gerald Buckley was a popular
Detroit radio commentator of
that era. His “anti-mob” campaign
drew a large following. On July
23, 1930, Buckley was gunned
down while sitting in Detroit’s
LaSalle Hotel. Purple associate Joe
“Scarface” Bommarito was tried
---- but acquitted of that murder.
The public was outraged.
Then, a triple murder at the
Collingswood Apartments on
Detroit’s East Side on Sept. 16,
1931 drew further condemnation
in the city’s three newspapers. The
shootings were said to be over
rivalry for rum running across
the Detroit River. Three Purples
were convicted in that gangland
dispute and sentenced to prison
in the Upper Peninsula.
Also called the “Sugar House
Gang,” The Purple Gang’s name
stuck when Eddie Fletcher – a.k.a.
“Public Enemy No. 2” – boxed in
bright purple trunks and wore a
bright purple robe when he fought
at Harry Harris’ Fairview Club,
according to The Detroit Times.
According to that newspaper’s
article on Nov. 27, 1933, Fletcher
and Abe Axler – “Public Enemy
No. 1 – had been found shot to
death the night before on a lonely
Oakland County road. Each
gangster had been shot five times.
The slayings have never been
solved.
“Purple Gangsters Mowed Down
in Gang Ride” and “Purples Left
Leaderless” screamed headlines
in The Times during that double-
slaying coverage. Police and
prosecutors claimed it was the end
of the Purples and some media
signed on.
But was it the end?
Fast forward to Clare, in mid-
Michigan, on May 20, 1938.
The rapid growth of the oil and gas
business in mid-Michigan (from
Alma to Montcalm County) was
centered in Clare. The buying
and selling of mineral rights and
of fledgling-oil-company stocks
drew lots of entrepreneurs -- and
con-men -- to the area.
One of them was truly a “mystery”
man in state history… Isiah
Leebove. Good friends with
Governor William Comstock,
Leebove became chairman of the
board of Mammoth Producing
and Refining Corporation. He also
was often seen with Purple Gang
members at his usual hangout –
Clare’s Doherty Hotel.
It was believed the gang laundered
illegally-gained money from its
rackets into “legal” oil leasing,
production and refining business
in Clare. Later, it was learned
that the Purples also hired
Leebove to use his friendship with
Governor Comstock to get the
Collingswood Apartment trio of
killers’ sentences commuted. (The
Governor declined to free the
killers.)
Enter another Michigan
“character.” John “Jack” Livingston
was an outlandish promoter.
He had worked for Leebove,
but it was a rocky relationship.
Living between the Doherty
and the Leland Hotel in Detroit,
Livingston was rarely sober, but
could be charming to those he
enticed into business deals. He
was well-dressed and always wore
a wide-brimmed white hat…
making him an excellent front-
man for Leebove to convince
farmers to sell off gas and oil rights
to their farms in mid-Michigan.
But Livingston was usually broke.
(Did this make him especially
vulnerable?)
That quiet evening in Clare, the
Doherty Hotel lounge entertained
its normal “regulars” with Leebove
holding court. Into the lounge
walked Jack Livingston, fired
three shots at Leebove, saying,
“There you son-of-a-bitch.” While
the victim died from two wounds
on the hotel bar floor, the shooter
calmly took the elevator up to his
third-floor room. (Livingston’s
third shot hit Pete Geller, sitting
next to Leebove, in the leg.)
Clare’s Police Chief Bill Dunlop
and Mayor John Dunlop brought
Livingston down from the room
and took him to the Clare County
Jail in Harrison. He was put on
suicide watch when he predicted
“they’ll” come to shoot me now.
Clare County Circuit Judge Ray
Hart’s courtroom had never
seen such sensational drama.

The Purple Gang.
Noted defense attorney Charles Goggin received his urgent summons to begin
preparing for Jack Livingston’s trial for the murder of Isiah Leebove.
12. MI MOST WANTED | Page 12
Newspapers from around
the country covered the Jack
Livingston trial. Clare County
Cleaver and The Clare Sentinel
boosted page count – and
circulation; The Detroit Times was
said to have gotten a phone call
about Leebove’s murder within 10
minutes of the shots and reported
the entire trial closely.
The defendant announced that he
would “tell all” at his trial.
Quickly, a crack legal team was put
together… to defend Livingston
who was broke. One of those
attorneys, Charles H. Goggin, had
made quite a reputation in central
Michigan. While in Washington,
D.C. he received an urgent
telegram saying that Judge Hart
had set a trial date and the defense
team would meet and begin
planning defense at the Leland
Hotel in Detroit.
While the trail itself held many
interesting twists, its outcome was
so startling, it resulted in changes
in Michigan law.
But the bigger question has always
remained: how did Livingston
afford this major legal braintrust
and trial effort for his defense?
Who paid for the high-priced
lawyers and a legal office to be
set up in a suite of rooms at the
Doherty? Why?
(More in Part 3, in the next edition
of Michigan Most Wanted.)

The Goggin scrapbook contains hundreds of press clippings from the murder trial’s
extensive newspaper coverage.
Dear MI Most Wanted Readers,
We are working with Michigan’s Most Wanted to
publicize unsolved cases and fugitives in their paper to
work together towards safer communities. We are looking
for sponsors to help us place these cases in the newspaper.
Sponsors will also receive an ad for their support.
Crime Stoppers is the largest crime fighting
organization in the world operating in 22 countries. Crime
Stoppers of Michigan is a nonprofit organization and
operates through funding of donations, memberships and
an annual fundraiser. CSM operates in Genesee, Livingston,
Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair. Washtenaw, and
Wayne counties.
The mission of CSM is to empower people to
make their neighborhoods, schools, and businesses safer
through anonymous reporting of crimes. The CSM tip line,
1-800-SPEAK-UP was created for citizens to anonymously
report information about a crime. As an incentive, tipsters
can receive a cash reward if their information leads to an
arrest. A cash reward of up to $2,500 is paid for an unsolved
homicide, hit and run or missing person. A cash reward of
up to $1,000 is paid for all other felony crimes.
Last year, Crime Stoppers received nearly 7,000
tips, solving 26 homicides, shutting down 58 narcotics
operations, and solving 14 armed robberies. $116.280 was
awarded to anonymous tipsters. Engaging everyone from
neighborhoods to schools to churches to businesses to
prisons. Crime Stoppers is dedicated to making Southeast
Michigan a safer place to live, work and play.
Just a few weeks ago, an 18 year-old woman was
parking her car on a Saturday night near Greektown Casino
- a part of town typically thought to be safe -when she
was shot multiple times. Within several days, a community
member called Crime Stoppers with an anonymous tip after
viewing a surveillance video on the Channel 7 WXYZ website.
The information provided enabled investigators to identify
and arrest the shooter. Collaboration like this between the
community, Crime Stoppers and law enforcement is what
makes our community stronger. Thankfully, the young
woman recovered from her gunshot injuries, and we can all
rest easier knowing that another armed and violent criminal
has been removed from streets.
Michigan’s Most Wanted is looking to provide
Crime Stoppers with increased opportunities for publicizing
unsolved crimes and wanted fugitives. We are looking for
generous community sponsors to help cover the costs.
The success that Crime Stoppers has accomplished
is all made possible by supporters. Many thanks to our
members, board members and donors!
