People there in the inner group did — but you did not tell Elvis what…

John Grazioli, 44, shot Amanda Grazioli, 31, in the head in their bedroom, and left a signed note saying he’d killed her and himself, police say. But instead of taking his own life, the cowardly creep — a financial manager who owned a Mercedes SUV and a $340,000 home — drove to a church in Erie, Pa., and spilled his guts, lawmen charge. According to Rev. Michael Polinek of St. Peter Cathedral, the two sat down in the rectory’s office — and Grazioli admitted to shooting and killing Amanda. Rev. Polinek says it wasn’t a sacramental confession, so he…

In a world exclusive, GLOBE can now reveal the commander-in-chief has been taking the fight to America’s adversary on multiple fronts — from covert military operations in Syria to cyberspace. “The attacks are surgical, yet meaningful,” says a National Security Council insider. “Neither side is willing to acknowledge what’s really happening for fear the conflict will escalate in a way matters get out of hand.
