Everything I've read said the same thing. Did the home perhaps belong to his mistress?

(His successor was Nicodemo (Little Nicky) Scarfo.

Christopher Moltisanti on "Sopranos."

My question about the UK-born gangster who ran the labor rackets for the Chicago Outfit still stands. He wasn't Frank Nitti.

A. Gallucio because he insulted his sister!

p.s. Don Pope - Accardo (Outfit) never served a prison sentence either. They're my two favourite gangsters!

Here's a tough one (come on turnbull!)

Here is a direct quote from Ralph Salerno, widely considered the Justice Department's No. 1 expert on organized crime, on Giancana's supposed "invovlement" in the Kennedy hits:

The FBI had very extensive coverage on the leaders of organized crime in Chicago, with Sam Giancana and others. They tape recorded him in the Armory Lounge, which he sort of made his own personal headquarters. Sam Giancana doesn't show any foreknowledge at all. After the fact, in a discussion, he's talking with one of his accomplices about Oswald, and they said "What kind of guy was he?" And Sam says "I don't know what kind of guy he was, but he was a pretty good marksman." Now that doesn't sound like the comment of a man who had retained the man he was surprised to find was such a good marksman.

Q. In what upstate New York town did Meyer Lansky control gambling?

No, although Giancana controlled and directed Rubys actions, he was not a shooter!
According to brother Chuck Giancana, a shooter by the name of Chuck "needles" Nicoletti was the assasin. Giancana was directly involved in the assasination and after becoming the Outfits boss, began working with Cuban exiles and the CIA in an attempt to kill JFK.

Q: what famous Chicago rat was found chopped up inside a 55 gallon drum in Florida after apparently telling a grand jury about the White/Black hand (CIA/mafia) ops in the early sixties?
