An enforcer for the Miami mob, Marcello or Trafficante I think.
no exactly correct in Cuba terms.
A Cubano-American spy for the CIA killed in the Bay of Pigs fiasco.
No Google. I used askrosieodonnell.com
incorrect, che2. And please, change your nick.
He was the mob man with whom the CIA contracted to hit fidel castro. He later was disappered, perhaps as retribution for trying to kill castro.
Correctamundo, Marc.
Marc- Why leave out the part about his being disposed of underwater in a cement filled drum?
Val- Why bring this up now? Is there any new info on the case?
Omar,
No, I was doing some research at the CIA freedom of information act archives and found this particular case in a memo titled “The Family Jewels.”
I am currently reading “The Company,” a fictional history of the CIA (and the basis for a TNT mini-series this past August.) Just finished reading the section that strongly suggests Roselli and Giancana were ordered killed by castro as revenge for trying to kill him.
Marc,
did you get my email this morning?
