I have fairly recently come across this site and what a treasure trove it is. I've been something of a Mafia buff since the early eighties. I think what fascinates me is how they got away it. Being from England I have relied on books and TV documentaries for my information. To be honest till I came on here I thought I knew a bit about the subject.... How wrong.
Could I as an initial enquiry cast you're minds back to when Joe Colombo was shot. I've seen it written many times that that his assailant was shot and killed by one of Colombo's body guards. Who was the Body guard? Did he ever face any charges relating to the incident? In lots of pictures of Colombo leading up to that time he is with a large man wearing glasses. The same man is seen leaning over him just after the incident. Who is he? Could he be the body guard?
Thanks in advance for any info. Keep up the good work with the site
