On July 31, 1975, Salvatore Saffioti, 34, was shot and killed at the Sandy Hook Hotel in Newtown, Connecticut. Saffioti was described as a member of the Bridgeport chapter of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club and was one of three men who entered the hotel that evening in a dispute connected to an eviction.

The conflict arose from a business dispute between hotel proprietor Donald E. Krosky and bar owner Charles Framularo; Framularo allegedly enlisted Hells Angels members to confront Krosky. Saffioti, Frank D’Amato, 23, and Donald Big Red Meredith reportedly went to the hotel armed with knives. Krosky fired a .44 Magnum carbine, killing Saffioti and D’Amato and critically wounding Meredith. Krosky then surrendered and was charged with two counts of murder.

Does anyone have additional information about Saffioti, his associates, or the events at the Sandy Hook Hotel that night?
