I'm surprised that no one has picked up on what Big Ed mentioned to the
sheriff when they were talking about the fight.  Big Ed said that he thought
his drink had been drugged and that he was there on a STAKEOUT.  This is 
surprising to me because we have never seen any association between the
police and Big Ed.  I think this might tie into the fact that cocaine was
on the envelope in the diary, and the $10,000 in the safety deposit box, and 
what Bobby and his friend were talking about in the jail cell.  It seems to
me that Big Ed must be in the DEA investigating a drug ring lead by Leo.
Bobby and his friend are working for Leo, evidenced by the fact that they are
worried about the money being in the saftey deposit box, where they can't get
it.  Somewhere, (maybe someone can tell me when?) it was mentioned that Bobby
had killed someone, which would be highly likely if he was involved in a drug
ring.  The fact that Leo had blood on his shirt doesn't necessarily make him
the man we are after, more likely it is the result of some other business
involving the drug ring.  Possibly Larua was killed for not turning over the
money, and Bobby was not told.  
  This is all getting a bit hypothetical, so I'd better stop.
  Anyone else come to similar conclusions?
