Vahan Rejebian, alias Al Green, burglary ringleader, crossing his arms. An unidentified man wearing glasses stands beside him. In the background is a hat rack and a "no smoking" sign. This photograph was possibly taken when Rejebian was in the court of Superior Judge Aggeler, who sentenced Rejebian to serve nineteen months in prison after Rejebian had pled guilty to a charge of second degree burglary. Rejebian's partner in crime, Frances Krug, was sentenced to six months in prison for receiving stolen goods from Rejebian.
