Ted Ammon crime scene photos

Danny Pelosi became the prime suspect in the 2001 murder of financier Ted Ammon

when Danny Pelosi was arrested for murdering Ted Ammon and in jail to await his trial, he was trying to move on with his life. He was expecting a new baby with his new fiancee, Jennifer Zolnowski.

But now, there is another woman in his life: prosecutor Janet Albertson.

As the trial begins, all she has is a lot of circumstantial evidence to offer as proof that Pelosi killed for money.

So who says Pelosi was at the murder scene? According to Albertson, Pelosi himself. She says he confessed to a number of people: “Stupid people do stupid things. That’s why we catch them.”

Albertson calls a contractor to the stand who worked with Pelos who says a year before the murder, Pelosi talked to him about killing Ammon. One of Pelosi’s ex-girlfriends also testifies that Pelosi admitted to the murder.

But Pelosi’s own father may have been the most damaging witness of all. He testifies that Pelosi asked him, just hours after the murder, how to dispose of something where no one could ever find it.

The prosecution thinks Pelosi was trying to get rid of evidence from the crime scene, especially the hard drive with pictures from the night of the murder.

“That unit recorded 24 hours a day, so of course it would have recorded the image of the murderer, coming in, going out, removing all the evidence,” says Albertson.

But for jurors, it was what Pelosi did and said to his father as he left the courtroom that was the most telling. He snarled at his father in front of the jury and said, “I hate him.”

“That had a tremendous effect on me,” says one juror. “Not just his relationship with his father, but the anger and rage that just suddenly came up like that.”

Pelosi’s attorney argues that his client had a love-hate relationship with his father. He also tells the jurors that each of the witnesses had a reason to lie about Pelosi’s confession.

But another relative, Pelosi’s sister, Barbara, was subpoenaed by the prosecution. Generosa had hired her to monitor the surveillance system on her laptop and spy on Ammon in the mansion.

Barbara says she saw something suspicious earlier in the evening, during a routine check, and that when Pelosi arrived the night of the murder, she asked him to log on and check it out. “I think I hurt Danny,” says Barbara. “Because I told him to go on the computer that night. Because he honestly did not ask me to turn it on.”

But Albertson says Pelosi had his own reasons for logging on that night: “I think what he wanted to know was when Ted Ammon was at the house. I think he also had an interest in whether anyone else was there.”

Shargel, however, set out to prove that there is no evidence Pelosi was even at the crime scene: “Ted Ammon died at a time when Danny Pelosi was not on Eastern Long Island. And as far as I’m concered, that’s the case.”

The night of the murder, Ammon went out for dinner, paid for his meal and left around 9:30 p.m. At 9:44 p.m., he made what could be his last phone call, to his girlfriend. He said he saw something that scared him and he was heading back home.

That phone call is the cornerstone of Shargel’s defense. He believes that someone could have followed Ammon home from the beach and killed him: “To have what seemed to be a confrontation, or a near confrontation, I think, is significant.”

The timing of the call fits neatly into Shargel’s theory. According to his star witness, Dr. Werner Spitz, a world-renowned scientist, there was still enough undigested food in Ammon’s stomach to prove he could not have lived more than four hours after eating.

Spitz insists Ammon was dead by 1 a.m., and Shargel proves that Pelosi was miles away from East Hampton during that time. His cell phone records show he was driving from Manhattan to his sister’s house.

Medical experts brought in by the prosecution, however, say Ammon could have been alive much longer, giving Pelosi time to get there.

As the trial wears on, all eyes turn on Pelosi himself. He told 48 Hours in a phone call from jail that he’s feeling the pressure: “I’m afraid to look at the jury. I’m afraid to do anything, because I’m too emotional, everyone says. I’m too emotional.”

Pelosi won’t take the stand in his own defense. But can he really keep quiet? “I’m going to follow the advice of my attorneys because it looks like I don’t even have to testify at this point, because the truth is the truth,” says Pelosi.

Ted Ammon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robert Theodore Ammon (30 August 1949 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – 20 October 2001 in East Hampton, New York) was an American financier and investment banker. He was murdered by Daniel Pelosi, the boyfriend of his wife Generosa.

Ammon graduated from Bucknell University, then followed his first wife to London, where he worked as a solicitor. His second wife, Generosa Rand, was a realtor he met during an apartment search; they married in 1986. The couple adopted twins from the Ukraine, Gregory and Alexa. Their five homes included two townhouses in Manhattan and an estate in Surrey, England. Ammon became one of the youngest partners at Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. and was involved in the RJR Nabisco buyout earning an estimate of $50-100 million.

Ammon’s marriage turned hostile after Generosa found a receipt for a divorce lawyer in his desk. They were days from finalizing their divorce when he was found beaten to death in the East Hamptons vacation home. Because their divorce was not finalized and Ted’s will had not been updated, Generosa inherited his estate in its entirety. On 15 January 2002, Generosa married Pelosi, then sold the properties she had owned with Ammon.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. took the unusual step of challenging her as co-executor of the estate, as she and Pelosi were considered persons of interest in Ted’s murder. However, the firm eventually compromised with Generosa, enabling her to inherit the money.

Generosa died of breast cancer in August 2003. She left a majority of her estate to the twins and legal guardianship of them to their nanny, Kaye Mayne. Full custody of the twins was eventually awarded to Ted’s sister. Pelosi was convicted of Ted’s murder in December 2004 and was sentenced 25 years to life.

David Sutcliffe played Ammon in the TV movie Murder in the Hamptons.
