New Judge Takes Charge in Pharaoh's Witness Case

In Buffalo, New York, a new judge has taken the reins in the ongoing case against Peter Gerace, the proprietor of the Pharaoh's strip club, who has already been convicted.

This case centers around Gerace and several other individuals who are implicated in the murder of a crucial government witness linked to Gerace's trial involving sex and drug trafficking. Recently, it was announced that Federal Judge Lawrence Vilardo has reassigned the case to Chief Justice Elizabeth Wolford, based in Rochester.

In addition to this case, Judge Vilardo is also overseeing the death penalty proceedings against the shooter involved in the tragic Tops supermarket incident.
