According to the court documents, the newspaper obtained, a couple met in Ohio federal pen, while Danielle visiting her father, who was sentenced for terrorism and Agnello was doing time for 9 years on racketeering and tax-evasion. The New York Post introduced Topalian as a leader of militant Armenian terrorist group.
Topalian was convicted of weapons and explosives possession after authorities in 1996 found a locker filled with more than 100 pounds of dynamite and a cache of guns that they traced back to the high-profile Armenian nationalist from Cleveland. Topalian helped plot the 1980 car bombing of the Turkish Mission to the United Nations in New York, which badly injured three passers-by. Carmine Agnello served for New York Gambino family, who controlled car services and metal waste business. â€œThe Bullâ€ was married and then divorced with the criminal John Gottiâ€™s daughter Victoria and had three children.
