www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,331108,00.html A convicted cop killer could testify before the grand jury investigating former police officer Drew Peterson. Anthony "Bindy" Rock, 68, was subpoenaed by the grand jury last week. Peterson remains a suspect in his 23-year-old wife's disappearance in October. Stacy Peterson was reported missing after she failed to show up at a friend's house. Rock was involved in an undercover investigation with Peterson in 1985. Peterson was indicted on charges of official misconduct and failure to report a bribe in result of that investigation. Peterson was fired after the indictment when he was found guilty of those charges. Peterson got his job back after the criminal charges were dropped when two appellate court judges ruled that his dismissal was excessive. Rock was convicted of the April 1970 murder of Joilet police Det. William Loscheider. Peterson said he didn't know why Rock would be subpoenaed before the grand jury. "All he knows is, I tried to buy dope from him a couple times," Peterson said. "I put him away for 20 years. He got out on appeal."

www.wbbm780.com/pages/1668114.php?New Subpoena Served In Old Drew Peterson Suspension Herald-News Reporting BOLINGBROOK -- A convicted cop killer reputed to have organized crime connections was subpoenaed Friday to testify at the grand jury investigating the fate of Drew Peterson's last two wives. State police served Anthony "Bindy" Rock, 68. He declined to comment. Rock was a central figure in an unsanctioned undercover investigation Peterson undertook while he was on loan from the Bolingbrook Police Department to the Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad in 1985. That investigation led to Peterson's indictment on charges of official misconduct and failure to report a bribe. Peterson was fired following his indictment when the Bolingbrook Police and Fire Commission found him guilty of those charges, as well as disobedience and conducting a self-assigned investigation. On different occasions, two appellate court judges ruled Peterson's firing was excessive. The criminal charges against him were dropped and he got his job back. Before he was investigated by Peterson, Rock was convicted of the April 1970 murder of Joliet police Det. William Loscheider. But it was actually a fellow officer who gunned down Loscheider during a burglary investigation at a North Broadway liquor warehouse, but courts blamed Rock because the death occurred while Rock was committing a crime. Rock, a reputed loan shark, was allegedly fleeing the scene with two accomplices when Loscheider was killed by friendly fire. The spokesman for the state's attorney's office, Charles B. Pelkie, said he could not comment on why or even if Rock was subpoenaed. Peterson himself could not understand what prosecutors wanted with Rock, who he had arrested once before the unauthorized investigation in 1985. "All he knows is, I tried to buy dope from him a couple times. I put him away for 20 years," Peterson said. "He got out on appeal." Peterson's fourth wife, Stacy Peterson, has been missing since Oct. 28. The results of a November autopsy conducted after the exhumation of his third wife, Kathleen Savio, who was the victim of a mysterious March 2004 bathtub drowning, have yet to be released.

Anthony "Bindy" Rock Rock was a central figure in an unsanctioned undercover investigation Peterson undertook while he was on loan from the Bolingbrook Police Department to the Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad in 1985. Schrock did accuse Peterson of'shaking Bindy down for money' in 1985, when Peterson was an undercover officer with the Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad. Peterson dismissed the allegation, saying, 'It doesn't matter. Whatever he says don't mean nothing.' Peterson did express his appreciation for Rock. 'I always liked Bindy, just because he was a character,' he said. 'He was a known criminal, but he had a personality that made him fun to work anniemyth.proboards82.com/index.c.cgi?action=display&board=illinois&thread=1204999378&page=1 |

anniemyth.proboards82.com/index.c.cgi?action=display&board=illinois&thread=1203690097&page=2Posted by "Wolfie": "Ok...I've been searching, trying to find a connection (if any) between Sgt. James Cronk (officer involved in the death of another officer, which Anthony "Bindy" Rock was convicted for) and that of Richard A. Cronk - neighbor of Drew's. From what I've found so far..I don't think so. I'm thinking more like brothers. Richard (Drews neighbor) would be around 52 years old, and Sgt. James Cronk would be aroud 62 years old. It looks like Sgt. James Cronk relocated to Marco Island at some point. I don't know how familiar any of you are to that area of Florida, but Marco Island is fairly close to Ft. Myers....which is a location that also has Drew connections, as well as Morelli connections. That said...it's highly possible the Florida connections are purely coincidental, because the Ft. Myers/Cape Coral/Marco Island, Punta Gorda, Sarasota areas are hot spots for retirees. I cannot confirm that the two Cronks are related at this point. It's just very odd. "

Interesting names in here to consider might of known Drew during his undercover ops
2003 (wings.buffalo.edu) "PEOPLE of the State of Illinois, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Glenn HICKMAN and Anthony Rock, Defendants"
"The factual situation which resulted in the trial of the defendants occurred on the evening of April 2, 1970, at which time seventeen policemen from the police force of the city of Joliet were participating in a surveillance of a building known as the Illinois Wine and Liquor Warehouse. Among the officers involved in the surveillance was Sergeant James Cronk, who shortly before 10:15 P.M. noticed Robert Bruce Papes and the defendant Anthony [Bindy] Rock pass by the warehouse several times in a Cadillac automobile. Later several officers saw a Chevrolet automobile enter an alley south of the warehouse and stop at a side door of the building. Several people left the automobile and disappeared from sight into the doorway. The driver of this vehicle, who was Papes, walked a short distance, made a surveillance of the area, returned to the automobile and then drove out of the sight of the officers. After several minutes Papes was again seen walking in the alley and after once more looking over the area he again disappeared from the sight of the police officers when he went to the location of the side doorway of the warehouse. It was within a matter of a few seconds of Papes' disappearance that Sergeant Cronk saw three individuals exit from the side doorway of the warehouse, at which time he signaled the officers to close in from various directions towards a concrete parking lot which was to the rear and west of the warehouse.
Papes and the defendants Rock and [Glenn] Hickman upon seeing the officers approaching them proceeded to run. Papes ran in a southwesterly direction and the defendants Rock and Hickman in a northwesterly direction towards some bushes located at the northwest corner of the parking lot. Papes was apprehended when a Sergeant Erwin pointed a shotgun at him. Papes submitted to an arrest and upon his person was found a [p. 414] loaded pistol and additional cartridges. As the defendant Rock was running he was carrying a small object in his hand. The defendant Hickman was carrying an attache case as he was fleeing.
The defendants Rock and Hickman ran through the bushes while in the meantime Sergeant Cronk ran to the rear of the warehouse where he noticed two people running in a northwesterly direction. Sergeant Cronk yelled 'halt--police' several times but his commands were ignored. He lost sight of the two fleeing individuals but within seconds thereafter saw a man carrying a handgun running towards the bushes at the northwest corner of the parking lot. Sergeant Cronk, believing that this approaching individual was one of the burglars of the Illinois Wine and Liquor Warehouse, and referring to the handgun, ordered the person to 'drop it.' When there was no compliance to this warning Sergeant Cronk fired his shotgun at the individual, who was later discovered to be Detective William Loscheider of the Joliet police force. Loscheider was killed by this shot from his fellow officer's gun.
Approximately one-half hour later the defendants Rock and Hickman were arrested as they were walking on a street approximately two and a half blocks from the warehouse. Neither of the defendants had a weapon on his person.""Robert Bruce Papes, Anthony Rock and Glenn Hickman were indicted by the Grand Jury of Will County for the offenses of murder and burglary. After trial by jury the defendants Rock and Hickman were found guilty of the crimes of murder, burglary and criminal damage to property. Papes was found guilty of burglary and criminal damage to [p. 413] property but not guilty of murder. The defendants Hickman and Rock filed a motion to arrest the judgment of guilty of murder and burglary. This motion was partially granted by the trial court in that the judgment of guilty for the crime of murder was arrested.
[Robert Bruce] Papes was placed on probation for a term of two years for the offense of burglary and as a term of probation was ordered to serve six months at the Illinois State Farm at Vandalia. The defendant [Anthony Bindy] Rock was sentenced by the trial court to a term of not less than one (1) year nor more than one (1) year and one (1) day in the penitentiary for the offense of burglary. The defendant [Glenn] Hickman was placed on probation for the offense of burglary for a period of two years and as a term of probation he was ordered to serve nine months in the Illinois State Farm at
