Ex Club Owner Indicted For Murder
Portland, Oregon
- Former Starry Night Club owner, Larry Hurowitz was indicted on 5 counts of murder in the disappearance of Tim Moreau. It all centered around a ticket scam at a John Lee Hooker concert. Apparently, there were alot more tickets sold than there should have been. Hurowitz claimed he was about to confront Moreau when he vanished. A few days later Moreau's car was found abandon at PDX airport. The FBI was brought in on the case. Moreau's disappearance has remained a mystery here in Portland for 9 years. Some people nicknamed the former owner "Scary Larry" and called the club the "Scary Night Club". Hurowitz had since moved to Vietnam, promoting concerts there. The club is now owned by David Liken and called "The Roseland". Hurowitz was always considered a suspect in the myterious disappearance, but there just was not enough evidence, and no body was ever found. This past summer, the authorities were able to have him extradicted to Oregon on charges of tax evasion. Since then, Hurowitz's former assistant and stage manager, George Castignola, was tape recorded by a former girlfriend (talking about the story). Castignola was arrested, indicted, and plea bargained, agreeing to testify against Hurowitz. Castignola also agreed to show authorities where Moreau's body was buried in the Columbia Gorge area near Stevenson, Washington. For his part, Castignola will receive 10 years. Horowitz faces the death penalty.
