RUNFOLA debuts as comedian . . . ends acting career?

Ross T. Runfola Esq., close political ally of Council Pres. Pitts & ex-Councilman-DARE cop Quintana, is rarely seen at Commission on Citizen Rights meetings. While not making hearing on police abuse last week at Hispanics United, he busily taped his debut as comedian on Greg Sterlace Show.

Undeniably smart, funny . . & rich (a high priced divorce attorney, living on upscale Cleveland, & driving a shiny Jaguar) his acting career seems to be over. It just didn’t work to ACT interested in the poor & downtrodden while repeatedly defending Quintana’s Crime Family. Runfola recently defended Godfather Roberto, (who now drives his glitzy newer RED Jaguar to suburban Wmsvlle) against Millie’s assault charges after a violent family split, (making it again safe to traverse Plymouth & Jersey by bike).

Runfola also clearly doesn’t believe in the First Amendment, a distinct problem for a rights activist. He threatened lawsuits should his name be criticizd in now-defunct Buffalo Beat, leading to use of Frostee FUNCOLA . . an apt name for a comedian . .DON’T you think?
