..where's the pizza parlor? I want to get these fuckers.
Early in August, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the District of Minnesota announced the arrest of 30-year-old Anton “Tony” Lazzaro.. A couple of days later, a 19-year-old Minnesota woman, Gisela Castro Medina, was arrested in Florida and named Lazzaro’s co-defendant in the case. Part of what made this news was the shocking (not shocking) revelation that Lazzaro was a high-profile GOP operative in the Land of 10,000 Lakes. Medina was the Minnesota College Republicans’ University of St. Thomas chair.
On Tuesday, one of Lazzaro’s alleged victims, an underage girl, filed a lawsuit against Lazzaro, claiming that Lazzaro attempted to get her family to hush up about his relationship with the underage girl. As CBS , the lawsuit calls Lazzaro the “ringmaster” of a sex trafficking enterprise. reports that after Lazzaro offered the girl’s parents $1,000 to sign a non-disclosure agreement, the father refused and contacted the FBI. The filing accuses Lazzaro of using his powerful position in the state’s GOP political world to “prey” on young women. ”When it became clear that Lazzaro had committed serious crimes, he attempted to coerce his victims and their families into keeping silent.”
