Sonny is said to have died January 5, 1998. How would you reconcile these disparate dates in your narrative?
The hearings after the fact. Two years later. It was only after watching the unedited films of the disaster at hearings that he became visibly shaken. The feds were seeing the same films as the perfect display of the consequences of crossing the state. A big authoritarian commercial with a big FU as well.
Around November 1995.
