Who Exactly was Ron Pataky and did he Kill Dorothy Kilgallen

[Tom Scully]

Not a single supporting link has been posted yet in this thread, but we have Walt's opinion. Thanks, Walt! One question, do you suspect Hoover paid or leaned on Dr. Luke to plant disinfo in "deep state, fake news" NY Times, or was it Marcello?

December, 1966:


Homicide detectives will tell you the first person to clear of suspicion, or not, is the spouse.:

59 weeks after Dorothy's sudden death..... Kollmar publicly escorts Fogarty

19 months after Dorothy's sudden death..... Kollmar and Fogarty are honeymooning

Personal life and death[edit]

Fogarty had two children with her first husband, Tom Fogarty. They were married for over 17 years, with Tom Fogarty working as an art teacher at Pratt Institute, New York.[15][16] The marriage ended in divorce.
In 1967, Anne Fogarty married Richard Kollmar, Dorothy Kilgallen's widower. According to a 1971 interview Fogarty did with the syndicated newspaper columnist Marian Christy, Kollmar broke his shoulder in an accident at home on New Year's Day 1971, which caused a blood clot to develop, and he died "a month later" on Anne's birthday.[4] The New York Times, The Washington Post and other newspapers, however, ran obituaries for Kollmar on January 9 and 10 of that year.[17][18] The Post reported on January 10 that Kollmar had "died in his sleep late Thursday [January 7]."[18]
Fogarty was married a third time in 1977, to Wade O'Hara, but this marriage ended in divorce.[19] She died of a heart attack in New York on January 15, 1980.[11]

The money angle, the townhouse was deeded in Dorothy's name.

Deed records also indicate this woman lived on repeated loans she took out on this property during her relatively brief ownership.


The "newly weds" repurchased the townhouse, despite Dorothy dying in it, and moved back in.

Richard "fell" down a staircase, resulting in a head injury caused coma, and soon died. His new wife continued to reside there despite the place being the scene of both Dorothy's and Richard's untimely deaths....

On January 7, 1971, Kollmar died at his Manhattan home.[2][34] Newspaper reports stated that he "died in his sleep late Thursday in his New York home."[34] According to his friends, he had broken his shoulder after falling at his home on January 4, three days before his death.[2][35]

His funeral was held on January 9 at St. Vincent Ferrer Church in Manhattan.[35] Kollmar is buried in Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Hawthorne, New York.

What a lot of people don't know is that Hoover was gay. The mob had pictures of Hoover and his boy friend Tolson in very compromising situations, I have seen one of  the pictures. Yes the mob owned Hoover. Hoover provided all the information to the WC so he could cherry pick what the WC saw. He was able to divert the attention away from the mob. Hoover had been seen with Frank Costello at race track.

The mob ( mafia) did not control Hoover.....  It was a mutual admiration society......

Now it would be hard to say what the control the mob had over Hoover but with the pictures the mob had, they controlled what he did with the mob.

Except the abwehr, the kgb, the American press, every other gay male, every savvy US politician, every other adult who was paying attention.

Hoover flaunted it, in a "oh yeah, what are you gonna do about it?" intimidating sort of way!

Walt, I'm illustrating public perceptions. You assume everyone of the 1920's through the 1970s were clueless idiots.



Too bad they couldn't sit side by side in this one, but Tolson, hands on the chair and staring down adoringly, is certainly not left out.
