Event Details

Join local author Vito Colucci, Jr. as he discusses his Pulitzer Prize winning book Rogue Town. Rogue Town is Vito's first-hand account of the true story of Stamford, Connecticut, a city that from 1965 through 1985 was under the stranglehold of organized crime and run by corrupt officials. This story served as a catalyst for Ronald Reagan as he established the President's commission on organized crime.

Vito received the Combat Cross for a shootout he was involved in, and received Valor Citations. He has been a regular commentator on various news programs including: 48 Hours, MSNBC, Fox News, and CNN. Vito has been a private investigator since 1990, and his own radio show "Crime Time" with Vito Colucci PI. A signed copy of Rogue Town will be raffled off during the program, with additional copies available for purchase. ($20 cash or check)
