I'm flattered that you'd create an account just to reply to that one comment of mine. Of all the things on this thread to go to such trouble, why for that one comment? And I never said that the town came up with that name whenever it was established way back when in reference to child sex trafficking. Now you have me wondering even more if the name of the town has developed into a double entendre. So I'll say it again. "What else is going on in that town?"

I think this is a very important post, the swing, the skateboarding, the video games are obviously geared towards children. There was something going on in this building and this is getting buried how can we make sure this goes back to the top I already upvoated but maybe other people can

"James Traficant (Roman for trafficker): Former congressman and felon was Youngtown's most criminal person, 10 municipal charges, got convicted. and Youngtown got saved from "Traficant" ...?" https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1850986

Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youngstown,_Ohio

For decades, Youngstown was a haven for organized crime, and related corruption was ingrained into the fabric of its society. A 2000 publication in The New Republic listed a "chief of police, the outgoing prosecutor, the sheriff, the county engineer, members of the local police force, a city law director, several defense attorneys, politicians, judges, and a former assistant U.S. attorney" as controlled by the Mob.[87] The city accelerated measures to limit the influence of organized crime upon all sectors of municipal life.

The climax of this ongoing effort was the arrest, trial, and 2002 conviction of former U.S. Representative James A. Traficant, Jr. (D), on bribery, tax fraud, and racketeering charges.[88] Although this has since been cleaned up somewhat, in 2006, Youngstown was ranked by Morgan Quitno Press, a Kansas-based publishing and research company, as the 9th most dangerous city in the United States.[89]

@helpingabit12, I'm giving this a "New Evidence" flair due to the fact the pot bust guy got the judges to write letters for him...that smells to me. I think folks need to keep investigating this -- judge links especially. Maybe someone can look up the court records to see who those judges were?

Some info about the basement:

In the late 80s early 90s a third business was created, a basement jazz club called "Pyatt Street Down Under" https://books.google.com.hk/books?id=4qN2CQAAQBAJ&lpg=PT135&ots=jDLWGEJKIi&dq=%22Pyatt%20Street%20Down%20Under.%22%20ohio%20%20basement&pg=PT135#v=onepage&q=%22Pyatt%20Street%20Down%20Under.%22%20ohio%20%20basement&f=false

Check out first review (from 2004): "there is a police guard at nights" https://dine.com/restaurants/Pyatt-Street-Diner-Youngstown-Ohio-48030.html

Interesting:

A Youngstown area man painted the outside of his business to protest what he says, was police brutality directed at his girlfriend. The man claims he reported an illegal strip club to the police and that they retaliated against him for reporting it, as they themselves frequented the establishment.

So... we know (and correct me if I'm wrong as I only speed read prior posts related to this one):

1. The band Abiku played gigs in the basement of this abandoned restaurant. They may have also lived there.

2. The restaurant part of the building was at one time owned by a guy named William Umbel.

3. Umbel was busted by the DEA for buying and distributing pot through his restaurant.

4. The pot was grown in a huge grow-op nearby.

5. When Umbel was in court facing charges, several lawyers wrote character reference letters on his behalf. Why? What was their relationship to him? Did he have something on them to make them want to do that?

We don't know if the strip club operated while he was still around or if it came along later, maybe illegally as a sort of ad-hoc squatter's setup after the restaurant closed down.

Questions:

Did Umbel rent out the basement to the strip club after he went to prison?

Why did the strip club shut down?

If child sex trafficking was occurring at that location, why did they shut down operations? Is that typical, like illegal dance and liquor clubs?

If so, where did they go? And does the weed selling operation follow the child sex trafficking locations?

Do they get the kids incredibly high prior to raping and killing them?

What happened to the pot guys?

...Dick biondi moved to Youngstown

Maybe that's where he got the inspiration for his, very bad song:

"On Top of a Pizza"

"The pizza song knock knock" Presented by WLS 890 radio chicago & PEPSI-Cola, "Now it's pepsi for those who think young!"

LP front cover http://images.45cat.com/dick-biondi-the-pizza-song-irc.jpg

Song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mu4EiTJNP1k

Comment on the song: "If I remember correctly, it was a promotion by WLS & Pepsi. Ya had to send in 6 Pepsi bottle caps & 50 Cents, & they mailed you the 45. LP"

Look at this looks like there used to be another down under restaurant in Ohio. Please note the ping-pong table and the priceless single review https://www.google.com/search?q=down+under+diner+ohio&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#fpstate=lie

Comments:

"Creepy. No way I'm calling that number.Ever."

"Hmmm. I'd pass on that one!"

"I get the message, but they could have worded that differently :)"

The phone number doesn't bring up any website or company names only this persons name and address http://www.whitepages.com/phone/1-234-855-0869

Only visible word is "WARNING !!" and two mersi officals logo's

2014 high res. picture of the front side of the building https://www.flickr.com/photos/seanposey/13043713714/ ( it looks closed and abandon and has letter sticked on the front door.)

You're good!

I noticed coat racks at booth in restaurant only see that in cold country. Ohio is one of the worst damaged rust belt states, abandonment everywhere, even cleveland lost half its population.I saw a sign on side of building that said "down under" was that name of club? Was there a side entrance below the restaurant. The menu prices were outrageously high for such a crummy place 14.95, 15.95 means it could not have been abandoned too long. There had been a "good food co-op" there as well. I only watched the video that showed part of outdoors. I don't want to see the rest, too creepy, good luck.

THANKSSSSSS!

Another reference to ohio beer award, I found references to abiku play dates in Columbus ohio and athens ohio April??? no year noted, no venue names, concerts cancelled

One of the guys reads off a piece of paper, "The State of Ohio Workers Compensation..." probably Board is the next word, and it's probably official documentation for the restaurant. That indicates to me it's located in Ohio, so yeah, I think you're right that it's somewhere there and not in Maryland.
