I forgot to get back to this, but with respect to Hairy Knuckles, Costello surrendered to serve his tax sentence in Atlanta on October 21, 1958, and remained there until 1961. On June 21, 1961 he finished his term at Atlanta and was driven to serve a 15-day contempt sentence at Rikers Island. Genovese was convicted of narcotics trafficking on April 17, 1959, but was free on appeal. He lost the appeal on January 12, 1960. So from around January 13, 1960 to June 21, 1961, Costello and Genovese were in Atlanta together.
Thank you Faithful. This clearly shows that Costello and Genovese were not in Atlanta together in 1958, something that Wolf claims. I´m usually skeptical about any article´s truthfulness when the phrase "boss of bosses" is used in connection with any other boss than Morello, D´Aquila, Masseria, Messina and Maranzano. I can´t help to think that when it is, the phrase is used only for selling purposes. And the phrase is used numerous of times in the article. However, I´m not dissing the article Toddo posted as a whole, which I believe is an excerpt from Wolf´s book. He did have a close working relationship with Costello and he did know Costello well. But he was certainly looking to cash in by using sensationalism when writing the book. And who can blame him?
