The story the MSM isn't telling. The Cossacks were setting up shop to run drugs and hookers out of the restaurant. (Why all the organized crime charges) The restaurant's manager is involved somehow to one of the Cossacks, and either participated willingly or got bullied into going along with them. (Bad debt is the rumor.) Either way, that's why the management didn't cooperate with the cops. One of the assistant managers told the cops about the meeting the cossacks were having with some of their affiliate gangs. Cops figured out on their own than that the bandidos would cause trouble.
