John Gotti's daughter is an author I believe.

Also didn't Toni Giancana publish a book as well? I think you meant Gotti.

Either way in case I'm correct.

Q. What gangster was killed by his girlfriends daughter?

A. Willie Bioff.

Q. Let's stick with the unions ("Now we have the unions, we have the gambling; an' they're the best things to have."). He ruled the Laborer's Union in Chicago for nearly an entire generation, dodging at least two attempts on his life. It's as if he walked around with a big "X" on his back!

Turnbull...Joe Lombardo was the incorrect name. The correct answer is Frank "Frankie The X" Esposito.

Louise Rolfe was "the blond alibi." She was Machine Gun Jack McGurn's mistress, and she and McGurn holed up in a Chicago hotel during the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in order to establish that McGurn wasn't present at the shooting.
Q. Who was the only man that Capone killed with his own hands after he left Brooklyn? (Hint: it wasn't Scalisi, Anselmi or Giunta, who were still breathing after he baseball-batted them and were dispatched by his bodyguards.)

Welcome back!
Good guess, Juventus, but most people now think Yale, not Capone, killed Colosimo. Laurence Bergreen Capone's most recent biographer, believes Capone wasn't even in Chicago at the time of Colosimo's murder.
Question still stands:
Q. Who was the only man that Capone killed with his own hands after he left Brooklyn? (Hint: it wasn't Scalisi, Anselmi or Giunta, who were still breathing after he baseball-batted them and were dispatched by his bodyguards.)

Since no one has answered:
The guy Capone killed was Joe Howard, a local gangster who slapped around Jake (Greasy Thumb) Guzik, Capone's close pal, and then insulted Capone when he confronted Howard.
Q. (Timely one): Which Don was known for his Fourth of July fireworks displays?
