Second suspect in Shack extortion case held without bail

A federal judge ordered this afternoon the second of three men accused of extortion involving The Shack Waikiki restaurant to remain in custody without the opportunity for bail until the conclusion of his prosecution.

The FBI said Tory Winward, 44, and codefendants Curtis Swanson and Jesse Yoshino used threats and violence to force out the original owners of the restaurant.

Yesterday, another judge ordered Swanson, 44, to also remain in custody without the opportunity for bail.

Yoshino, 30, will find out Friday whether he will get bail.
