The Most Supreme Asininity in the 1978 Anthony Cipolla Case ... which has been in front of everyone's face, all along

Since the 1990's, when Diane Thompson was anonymously interviewed for a Pittsburgh area newspaper article, the thesis statement on the 1978 Cipolla Case was that the case was rigged by corrupt local government, by means of pressure upon a single mother, and then conveniently dismissed.  

The assertion was that there was no way Cipolla could ever be taken to court, should there one day emerge actual evidence ... as opposed to the refutable bull crap which either didn't exist in the first place or failed the standard of "beyond a reasonable doubt."

The Missed Epiphany 

The mantra was that Cipolla walked away, with the help of "the suits" who suddenly intervened on August 28th, 1978, resulting in him never having to answer for two accusations pertaining to July 1978.

Ladies & gentlemen, what is wrong with this picture?

ANS: Well, in late July or early August of 1978, a twelve year old Frank Labiaux told Detective Warren Boz ... and maybe even Leo Marchetti ... that Cipolla took him to Michigan, to a Red Roof Inn, and molested him there ... beginning when he was eleven.  

Now, even in the Year 2018, Warren Boz said that he believed everything Frank told him, because Boz believed that no twelve year old child would ever lie to a police officer. 

Okay then, if Boz had been so sure that Frank Labiaux was telling the truth about the Michigan Red Roof Inn in 1978, then Detective Boz believed that Cipolla committed a federal crime, pursuant to 18 USC 2423.  It's known as the Transportation of Minors law.

So, why didn't Boz contact the FBI?  Why didn't Marchetti contact the FBI?   Why didn't Diane Thompson contact the FBI?  Why didn't Boz and/or Marchetti and/or Thompson contact anyone in the Federal Dept of Justice?  

Or is it that they knew that they had a very weak case against Cipolla, at the starting gate?  If so, then why didn't Boz and Marchetti continue the investigation ... or at least let the feds know of its existence, and let the feds continue with the investigation?

That particular 18 USC 2423 statue had attached to it a ten year minimum sentence.  By the way, that statue became United States federal law in 1948. 

Hello?  Is anybody home?
