Rob Ford's Toronto

[sublime]

It's weird that we don't know who Juiceman is. You'd figure he'd have been picked up during Traveller. Maybe he runs the network from a distance. Far fetched but Romeo?

Hi there , I am new and have a question... When RF's phone went missing... did it take a few days for him to get it back? Would it make sense for Romeo to have access to his phone during this time? wonder why ?

Yes, but what favours did RdB get? GFL contracts? Nightclub preference? Partying at CH after hours? Escorts? Just guessing too.

You make good points! And I do know Romeo has something on Ford. Imagine if he's involved with Dixon Bloods network ? Maybe he's the kingpin.

Could it be that maybe Rob thought he left his phone somewhere... somewhere like DiBattista's little after-hours club?

Ok, so I confirmed Juiceman is a 19 year old kid from the Dixon towers. He's similar to A Smith in that he's friends with the Dixon Bloods but he wasn't targeted by Project Traveller so his phone wasn't tapped.

Wow, that is huge! So Pandora's box is open now, it seems.
It will definitely be an interesting summer.
Maybe the cops are stalling the arrests because the ‘Ndrangheta have to arrange for media-friendly fall guys.

Any idea, then, why Lisi would have called "Juiceman", both re the 'phone and re the video, in particular (eg, why Lisi would have "Juiceman's" 'phone number)?

One of the great orators of our time.

Perhaps Rob is a poet, but doesn't know it?

I didn’t
Overstep my boundaries
I did
What the taxpayers
Want
They want subways
That’s it.

They don’t
Want streetcars.
I was
Out in Scarborough over the weekend
People came up to me
And said
They want subways
That’s it.

It’s the taxpayers
The taxpayers
Want
I was elected
On subways
They want subways
I was out on
Saturday
People want subways
That’s it.

It’s
All subways
It’s
All about subways
All about subways
So, it’s
The taxpayers
That elected Me
To get the subways
In and that’s what
We’re going
To do.

It’s like winning
An election
So If they
Voted me in
That means I don’t win
an election?

It doesn’t
Make
Sense.

That's a direct transcript.

That's got to be him.

It's definitely him. I mean, there aren't exactly a lot of Baby Huey-looking guys out there named Rob, who would have been that age at that time.

Kudos to JohnGalt for an informative first post. I have no doubt it was a l'il Slob Ford he was dealing with way back when. (Or as 'l'il" as Ford could manage to be, even as a kid. That is some unfortunate DNA.) Too many coincidences otherwise; it had to be Ford.

Donovan has said the he personally doesn't know of him ever working there but will be making some calls and will keep me informed. After all, if he did, would he advertise it after being unceremoniously relieved of his duties? Given Rob's track-record, I'd assume: No.

Honestly, you can never tell with a self-destructive fuck up like Ford. Who knows why he pulls half the shit he does? I doubt even he could explain it.

Now official. Jones out, immediately. Press release claims it was "mutual decision".

Suuuuuure it was.

I looked at robbie's high school and middle school pics and I'm not sure they look that similar. Robbie had much blonder hair with a cowlick wave. This guy's hair seems darker -- particularly given that it's summer -- and the hair seems straighter. And yes, the mayor is and was notable for his, let's say excess avoirdupois -- however, his weight seems to be distributed differently from that of the corpulent kid in the photo.

Having said that I would not be surprised or disappointed to be in error.

If the picture was from 1988-89 Robbie would have been finishing high school, he'd be 19 or 20. He would look different from his earlier high school pictures.

...and blonde hair often darkens during the teen years. I reckon it's him.

it was one of my dad's biggest pet peeves: people who have their own garage, own an expensive car (heck, any car, but especially an expensive one) yet they keep the car outdoors while keeping rusty old shovels and junk in the garage.

Maybe because the Escalade is leased ( by DECO? ) he figures he can treat it like a rented mule?

I spoke too soon. My top source disagrees with my other source about Juiceman. Says he's likely an older, higher up within the community and that cops don't know who he is.

Anyone else feel like waiting for some of these MM rumours to crystallize is kind of like Waiting for Godot/"Free Beer Tomorrow"?

Such as?

Doug and Randy would come to collect personally. Generally confronting the debtor at a party. No one would intervene. If the debtor couldn't pay they would be made an example of.
