Lisa Rizzolo requests $22,892 for January. $13,748 approved

Racketeer Rick Rizzolo's ex-wife Lisa is stashing her husband's ill-gotten fortune in a Cook Islands account to avoid paying restitution to beating victim Kirk Henry, and back taxes to the IRS.

In December, the United States Federal Court allowed Ms. Rizzolo to withdraw $4,684.20 from her Cook Islands account to pay for attorneys fees. and an additional $8,586.55 for personal living expenses.
