Chicago Outfit Murders 1960's

Post by Villain »

Big credit goes to Eline2015 who made this list since it was inspired by one of my previous posts regarding the Outfit’s murders from the 1970’s and reached the number of 94 or 95 killings, against this one from the 1960’s or the previous decade which lists "only" 26 murders, give or take. So this post is to make a difference between the leadership from the 1960’s and the one from the next decade. Obviously this is another proof which shows that the older members killed only if it was a necessary situation. Here’s the list:


1. January 5, 1960 - William Skally

2. January 20, 1960 - Arthur Adler

3. March 31, 1961 - John Arthur Powers

4. June 1, 1962 Leo Johnson

5. June 13, 1961 - L.C.Smith

6. June 17, 1962 - Herbert Kwate

7. June 20, 1961 - Ralph Del Genio

8. August 11, 1961 - William Jackson

9. October 20, 1961 - John Kilpatrick

10. May 15, 1962 – Jimmy Miraglia

11. May 15, 1962 – Billy McCarthy

12. February 13, 1963 - Ben Lewis

13. May 6, 1963 - Irving Vine

14. June 7, 1963 - Kenneth Gordon

15. November 19, 1963 - Leo Foreman

16. January 21, 1964 - Tony Moschiano

17. March 5, 1964 - Al Romano

18. August 31, 1964 - Guy Mendola

19. November 24, 1965 - Angelo Boscarino

20. September 11, 1965 - Mandel Skar

21. September 18, 1966 - Valerie Percy

22. February 2, 1967 - Charles Michelotti

23. March17, 1967 - Alan Rosenberg

24. June 18, 1967 - Gerald Covelli

25. July 12, 1967 - Arthur Cowan

26. July 6, 1969 - Harry Carlson



And heres the one from the 1970's:

Yeah looks like them two were quite notorious, including Cerone. And to tell you the truth Accardo was always different than Ricca

Those two were thought of as being extremely petty whacking guys 40 years after having a personal beef with them. Specifically Giancana and rosselli were supposedly whacked not because of them being afraid of what they would say in court but because of beefs. According to roselli accardo hated him going back to the Capone days supposedly over rosellis higher standing with Capone at the time and that contributed to his demise as much as anything else. Many guys were whacked just because they were giancana guys not because they actually did anything wrong

Never know about such relationships between accardo and roselli. I think roselli became a made in LA mob

Yeah i also remember reading one of Rosellis interviews and he stated that he was more closely affiliated with Ricca than Accardo. Also stories like Ricca gave him money when Roselli was a youngster so he can go to LA and something like Ricca also being the main mediator in Rosellis later transfer to Chicago

I read where Butch Blasi and Accardo were close even though Blasi was also close to Giancana. If Blasi was the hit man in the Giancana murder, I'm surprised they didn't wack him also. It was such a high profile hit.

Blasi was first Accardo's so-called "errand boy" and then he became Giancana's. It is also possible that Angelo LaPietra prepared the gun for Giancana's execution and Blasi allegedly delivered it, although it is possible that he might've let somebody else through the back door and killed the former boss but this is only a speculation

Yes and I have heard DiFronzos name also mentioned as being there to make sure Blasi killed him. There was also speculation that Spilotro did it.

I'm sure I read during the Family Secrets trial that Calabrese had secondhand info on who killed Giancana but I don't think it was ever published.

22 with a silencer. Supposedly they had someone making them in Florida. The 22 with a silencer was used in a bunch of mob hits in the mid to late 70's. I believe Jackie Cerone told Jimmy the weasel that.

I believe he testified that Accardo ordered the Giancana hit. Maybe that second hand info will come out someday.

The gun was found on the way from Giancana's house to Blasi's. Nick said that Frank Calabrese and Angelo LaPietra fashioned the silencer.

As Sam22 stated, they got a lot of these weapons from the gun store in Florida. Schweihs was seen around there a lot and in Florida in general.
