BALLSTON SPA – The owner of a Johnstown sub shop regarded Allyzibeth Lamont as a “ringleader” among disgruntled employees, arranged with a manager to beat her to death, and then made extensive efforts to cover up the crime, a prosecutor charged in opening statements Wednesday in Georgios Kakavelos’ trial for first-degree murder.
