The alleged Mob connection to Adler apparently had its genesis three years ago. In a deal brought together by Stratton Oakmont Inc., Adler Coleman was funded through a company called Atrium Holding Co. According to private-placement documents obtained by BUSINESS WEEK, one of Atrium's largest investors was Philip Barretti Sr., an alleged associate in the Gambino crime family. In July, Barretti pleaded guilty to charges that he participated in a cartel that controlled New York City's trash-hauling business and agreed to a prison sentence of 4 1/2 to 13 years and $6 million in fines and court costs. Edward J. Cohan, chief executive of Atrium and Adler, says he was unaware of Barretti's involvement in the financing. Barretti was unavailable for comment.
