In the first week of July 2002, Chicago Outfit Underboss, Nicholas J. “Buddy” Ciotti, Jr., was released from FCI Oxford Camp. Then Ciotti was known as inmate number 11728-424. As a condition of his release from Oxford, Ciotti was ordered to spend at least one month in the halfway program at the Salvation Army building on Ashland Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. However, on his way to the Salvation Army,... read more

The Fix Was In On The Reinstatement Of Giacchino’s Medical License In The 1980s
Regardless of how much respect Chicago Tribune’s John Kass and his office may give the Giacchino’s during the current hearings on Giacchino’s medical license, Kass will never learn what I know without reading my articles. In an unofficial sense, I had the opportunity to interview/examine the following people over the years: 1. Joseph L. Giacchino, Jr. 2. Willie Messino, Sr. 3. Jack P. Cerone,... read more

Chicago Outfit Member Rudy “No Chin” Fratto Finally Scams U.S. District Judge Matthew F. Kennelly For More Freedom
The Chicago Outfit has an abundance of ‘made’ members that have nicknames related to distinctive physical problems, like No Nose and Scarface. The Fratto family is particularly famous in this respect, with such members as Louis “Cock-Eyed” Fratto and Frankie “Half-Ear” Fratto. After the news I heard the other day, I think Rudy “No Chin” Fratto also qualifies for the nickname “No... read more

Chicago Outfit Boss John “No Nose” DiFronzo Ordered Rudy Fratto And Others To Murder Teamster Official Senese
When I was a little kid, my dad used to tell me about a friend of his that smoked one carton of cigarettes a day. This person was a fellow by the name of Dominic Senese. Like my father, Dominic was the secretary-treasurer of a Chicago based local for the Teamsters. In fact, the interests of Dominic’s local (#703) and my father’s local (#738) were intertwined at several major food companies located in... read more

Mobster, Extortionist, Tax Evader And Murderer Rudy Fratto Is Sentenced To Prison

I have been publishing some rough articles on Fratto and knew his family would not like to see me today. However, the hurt my family... read more

The Village of Rosemont’s Connection To The Chicago Outfit
I believe the late Mayor Donald Stephens knew some gangsters back in the 1950s and ‘60s. The question is what does it mean when you know someone? I know Billy Parrillo, Founder, Chairman and President of Safeway Insurance. I have called him numerous times to suggest that he think of Holy Name Cathedral when donating money (which he has graciously done). However, I am sure if I called him and asked him... read more

For the first time I am going public... read more
