toodoped, if you get the time could you go into the killing of police captain james drury, why he was killed by the outfit, and how they got away with it, and was it ricca who ordered it.

My opinion on the Drury case is that he was killed for two reasons, one was the exposure of the Outfit's operations and the other one is for his alleged swindling of the mob.

Drury mainly worked to expose corruption in the Chicago Police Department and during the 1940's he was suspended from the police department. Later he became a crime reporter for the Chicago Herald-American and the Miami Daily News and In 1950, when Kefauver launched an investigation into organized crime and Drury was the one who provided most of the testimony.

Regarding his alleged schemes, Drury allegedly once threatened a witness to make positive identification on James Ragen’s slayers, including Lenny Patrick, Dave Yaras and William Block. Drury and one of his partners were called by a grand jury for conspiracy and later they were suspended. Allegedly Drury also tried to blame Patrick and Yaras for the murder of Bugsy Siegel in Los Angeles.


Drury was in very bad shape with Jack Guzik and so I believe that Guzik was the one who screamed for Drury's demise and Ricca, Campagna and Accardo gladly approved it.

Now, regarding Drury's killers,there were three suspected so-called hit squads, one was the imported killer from Brooklyn, New York, Tony Rotondo. The story came when some guy who was arrested for something over there, told the cops that Rotondo was in fact Drury's killer and that he took a lot of cash for the job.

The second group of suspects were the so-called Three Doms, Dom Nuccio, Dom DiBella, Dom Brancato and the third group of suspects,info which was received from an anonymous phone call that Fat Leonard Caifano, Sam Marcelli and Charles Nicoletti were the hit team on Drury.

thank you toodoped, very factual as always, kills the theory of an innocent cops assassination.

Amuso

Amuso doesnt look day over 81

Toodoped, have you ever come across any Angelo LaPietra pics from when he was in his 30s or 40s?

Amuso doesnt look like a mobster in that pic, he looks like the head of the service department at a ford dealership.

Thanks!....I have been wondering how he has been holding up.

So the plan seems to be, Scarfo will get out in 2033. He will then proceed to land a helicopter wherever they are house his buddy Vic at the time, the. He will go chopper into Bobby Mana's jail house and if he has room in the chopper, he will go pick up his son.......Then fly to NYC and re establish order. Maybe blow the doors off a mausoleum or some crazy sh*t like that.

Looks like The Hook already started to turn Q-ball in his late teens..

toodoped, in the book "family secrets" the "hook" comes across as one of the most sadistic outfit members, the author claims he was as disturbed individual as ever to be inducted into the outfit.

What can you expect from a guy who used to work for Buccieri

hehehehehe

The "hook" thing was a myth. It actually referred to juice loans, i.e. LaPietra had a guy on "the hook" for 5k.

I dont know if he already had the name before this torture/murder of a bookie they were making an example of or not...

but there was a murder i believe he was involved in where they tortured the guy on the meat hook for days...im a lil hazy on the details but I tihnk there was someone that testified of this

the name of the man was "action Jackson" and like you say was tortured on a meat hook for days. ive heard it was "fifi" buccieri who wanted him dead. toodoped would know all about this one.

The was Mad Sam DeStefano responsible for Jackson's torture. Brutal, sadistic stuff.

Mad Sam
