Being white collar in Cicero doesn't give you an edge up on being on top. If anything, being blue collar does. And I never heard anything about that Solly C story after it happened. I feel like it was just a robbery that went wrong and as soon as the reporter found a way to bring up the mob, they did regardless.
Whatever it was, it wasn't related to Sammy. His adult son lived in the same neighborhood but he is a relatively legit guy.
Here is a recent photo of Sammy.
Eh the Solly stuff is my fault. I thought he was also referred to by that nickname. Chitown, I know it's probably been brought up before I don't remember, but did you grow up in these neighborhoods?
