We're the Only Ones Bada Boom Enough

The acquaintance, a Middletown man, was concerned about the ex of a woman he was dating. He asked Etkin for advice on how to handle the matter. Etkin told the man he'd look into it.

According to prosecutors, Etkin told the man the ex was a high-ranking member of the Genovese crime family, and that a hit had been put out on him. Etkin told him he'd negotiated with organized crime figures to withdraw the hit, for $3,500.

Sounds like somebody's been watching too many episodes of "The Sopranos."
