Fogetaboutit

Harrah's Entertainment has hired former waste management attorney Timothy R. Donovan as senior vice president and general counsel. "Waste management," eh? Interesting. From the RJ:
The 53-year-old Donovan received his law degree from Capital University in Columbus, Ohio, after completing his undergraduate degree at Ohio State University.
Capital University - A very respectable mob law school, we're sure.

Donovan previously worked for Phoenix-based Allied Waste Industries as executive vice president and general counsel, where he was presumably in charge of either stabbing people with ice picks or digging holes.

Donovan "replaced" Steve Brammell, who had been Harrah's general counsel since 1999 ... may he rest in peace.

  1. While I have no idea about Mr. Donovan's past - I sure enjoyed this post. Good chuckle in the morning.

    What a great city where you can just make completely unsupported allegations about a person regarding mob ties and I just read it and think, "yeah, probably." Happy Friday folks!

  2. As we Ohio State grads used to say about our cross-town "rival"
    Q: "Did you hear they had to shut down the Capital Law School?"
    A: "Yeah, somebody checked out the book."
