POLICE CHIEF'S Children Learn They Have a Black Half Sister in New Book NO GREATER DECEPTION

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 14, 2004 -- NO GREATER DECEPTION A True Texas Story by SYDNEY NEWMAN DOTSON is "a real life Texas Soap Opera of Love, Death, Betrayal and Justice. Move over Dallas, here comes Houston!" says Liz Carpenter, Author and Lady Bird Johnson WHITE HOUSE Press Secretary.

"Police Chiefs, Sheriffs, Officers and Deputies are shooting me emails like bullets," says Sydney. "They want to know my father's name, the Police Chief that married the town whore. I recently learned I have a black half sister living in Dickinson Texas. I recently met with her, her sons and her mother."

"I remember the lighted billboards, casinos, bawdy houses, hookers, hotels, restaurants and local businesses that lined the streets of Dickinson, Galveston and the Kemah Boardwalk. Salvatore Sam Maceo and his brother Rose owned most of the casinos along with partners Anthony Fertitta, Pete Salvato and the Emmitte brothers. They kept the Texas Rangers, Deputy Sheriffs and local Police very busy. Some of them got rich by tipping off the establishments of pending raids. These lawmen were known as Rose's Night Riders. My father was at the top of the list. At six foot six, he served as the Maceo's and Bobby Moody's bodyguard during this colorful time period. The Edgewater Lounge, now known as Jimmy Walker's Landry's Restaurant, was the most guarded casino in Kemah."



"Remnants of casinos, motels, night clubs, speakeasies and bawdy houses remain in Galveston County today in the form of gambling chips, match books, dinner menus, table napkins, and monogrammed towels, restaurant glasses, and decks of cards. Many local law enforcement officers on the take hung monogrammed towels from The Sylvia D Motel in their homes."

"Hold onto your bootstraps! Sydney and her sister Heather will take you on a gut-wrenching roller coaster ride that occurs after their father dies and their stepmother, a well known hooker, produces a suspicious Last Will and Testament that leaves the stepmother the entire estate.



Was it normal for Joe Bonanno and other well-known gangsters to visit their home? How involved was their father in the gambling and prostitution rings along the Galveston Bay? Were his connections to George Bush, Lyndon Johnson and New York Mafia Kingpin Joe Bonanno much deeper than they seemed? Was he involved in the JFK assassination?"
