  • That’s a huge bummer. I love their stadium, and for a club with their resources this is probably going to be a big financial hit.

    Edit: I don’t know much about it, but from the article it sounds like either someone in the org is too cheap to do the basics for health and safety or the club doesn’t have the money to do it, which makes something like this a compounding problem.

    He added he has been unable to contact Rayo president Raul Martin Presa, who has long been criticised by the club’s fans and players for the poor upkeep of facilities and a failure to modernise the club.

    Last season, the Spanish football association published a letter written by Rayo’s players that described the Vallecas pitch as “unplayable” and noted a lack of hot water in the showers and inadequate cleaning.

    The victims appeared to be lower class individuals – easy prey during the Great Depression. Many were known as “working poor” who had nowhere else to live but the ramshackle shanty towns, or “Hoovervilles”, in the area known as the Cleveland Flats.

    During the time of the “official” murders, Eliot Ness, leader of the Untouchables, was serving as Cleveland’s Public Safety Director, a position with authority over the city’s police and ancillary services, including the fire department. Ness contributed to the arrest and interrogation of one of the prime suspects, Dr. Francis Sweeney, and personally conducted raids into shantytowns and eventually burned them down. Ness’ reasoning for doing so was to catalogue fingerprints to easily identify any new victims, and to get possible victims out of the area in an attempt to stop the murders.
