Update: Everyone seems to want to chat with Frank Russo. The PD, taxpayers, us, and now WKYC.
The station sent The Investigator to talk with the former auditor about his life as a free snitch. It did not go well. Some details from WKYC’s investigative Investigator report:
Channel 3 News undercover cameras spotted Russo partying and having a good time at the Twist, a popular nightclub on Clifton near W. 117th Street.Those who are close to Russo say he’s a regular.
Russo has also been seen eating out at a number of local restaurants, including one in Tremont where a patron demanded to know why he wasn’t in prison while Jimmy Dimora was.

“How do you afford to eat out and go to nightclubs when you owe the government millions?” asked Meyer.
“I’m here to do a job, not to talk to you,” Russo said.
“Stop being so mean and stop being cruel to human beings.”
Video below that includes WKYC’s undercover shots of Russo at Twist. Scandalous.
“Stop being so mean.”
The Investigator kind of comes off like a prick, too.

The Plain Dealer tried to check in with former Auditor and current government rat Frank Russo to see what he’s been up to and yes, when he’s not being abruptly interrogated outside of Grumpy’s by taxpayers, he’s just roaming around doing his thing.

amazing.. Only Chicago is more corrupt than Cleveland, and Chicago get 100 times more done. Look at that city compared to Cleve. and they are basically the same set up. This whole mess wouldn’t be so bad, if the city had benefited just a little, like Chicago always does!
He hangs at “Twist”?
Pillowbiter…
Isn’t Twist a gay bar? I’m surprised the gays let him in.
Any new updates on this? This guy’s another piece of garbage that I want rotting for years and years behind bars. And the sooner the better!
Russo wasn’t so concerned about being cruel and mean while he helped rip the city off for who knows how much. But now that shit’s coming back to him, he wants to cry and play the “woe is me” card?
Really don’t care that Russo turned Rat and helped put JD away, hard prison time needs to come as soon as the gov’t is done using little Russo as their testify pawn against any other guilty people.
