Former union head wants separate trial from relatives due to mob connections


He wants some distance from his family — and that family.
A former union president charged with labor racketeering wants to be tried separately from his dad and cousin because the feds plan to link them to the Genovese crime family.

The judge said she’d decide the issue “very shortly.”
