He died of cancer. Mikey Jaws was very well liked. He was basically one of the Outfit’s rep in Florida since early 2000s until his death. Owned a hotel that he used for a call girl operation he was running with Rose Laws. There was no question that the Outfit was getting its share bc he was part of the Outfit and he got the loan to get the hotel because of the Outfit. He was no independent.

Thx.
@Scottychicago
That's quite possible. I know he was connected with North Side in the past.
He died of a natural cause?

He was apparently doing big business. How likely is it that the outfit got a share?

He was never part of the Chicago Heights crew. He ran some gambling houses in the Heights in the late 80’s when Tacco had all that trouble but he was not part of that crew I believe, but need to confirm, he belonged to North Side/Rush street crew. Worked with Rose Laws in the prostitution network.

Your correct I never heard his name in connection with that crew. His outfit connections aren’t that strong I don’t believe he actually belonged to a crew. He was oc but he did a lot with Russians. Anyone have any corroboration saying he was part of Chicago heights at some point. As you pointed out that crew was defunct for some time
Thanks
