How about Joe the German Watts who was part of Gotti's inner circle and was a backup shooter in the Castellano hit?

Apparently they supplied the gangsters they contracted with all kinds of crazy gadgets, and training. Really makes you wonder who actually was responsible for killing Kennedy. Could have been Lee Harvey, or the CIA, or maybe it was the mob. I mean after all they did basically render two made hitmen into trained assassins, they were specifically being trained to take out the leader of another country, so why couldn’t that training apply to assassinating Kennedy?

Could the mob change the parade route? Or eliminate the protection for the President? Could the mob send Oswald to Russia and get him back? Get the FBl, the CIA and the Dallas Police to mess up the investigation? Get the Warren Commission appointed to cover it up? Wreck the autopsy? Influence the national media to go to sleep? Since when has the mob used anything but .38's for hits up close? The mob wouldn't have the guts or the power for something of this magnitude. Assassins need payrolls, schedules, times, orders. This was a military-style ambush. A coup d'état with Lyndon Johnson waiting in the wings.

They could supply the patsy, and kill him afterwards.

I guess Jerry Zimmerman was a pretty powerful guy with the Colombos in the 70s and 80s. He was with Sonny F.
There was that guy that Massino whacked that was a childhood friend...Leisenheimer? Duane Leisenhiemer? I don't know how powerful this guy was but he was close with the boss so he was a boss' man type guy.
We all know that Chicago had a ton of powerful non italian associates.
Shondir Burns - Cleveland - Jewish Loanshark
Johnson of Bumpy - Dark associate with the westside

Massino didn't whack Duane Leisenheimer. He flipped and testified against Massino at his trial.
