Most accounts believe Carbo was the trigger man, too. It's just the way Frattiano puts himself into every historical event, kind of raises red flags. I'm on the last 50 or so pages, now. I forgot he put himself front and center in Cleveland's Danny Greene war, too. But as you said, who else's word do we have to go by? Has anyone refuted him?

BTW, I'm thinking Johnny Knoxville to play Frattiano in a movie. He could use the same costume from Bad Grandpa in the later scenes.


"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
