If Bonicelli didn't get involved until 1980, how could the owners be involved in a contract killing of his mother in 1975??

OK, I'll take a stab at it.

Time appears linear to us. However, if seen from another vantage point, time may be non-linear. 1980 happened before 1975 for these people.

I think somebody must have done a sling-shot around the sun, disrupting the space-time continuum, and creating a temporal distortion.
