Really want to read about how Jackie the kid raised to power
Im not sure there's enough out there on him yet even if you wanted to write a bio
Which is crazy because the "kid" is 70!
Detroit is a super corrupt city. That explains a lot.
And it is quite simple why he is in power. Out of everyone with the last name Tocco,Zerilli and Giacalone he is the most adept at making money/captaining the ship.
