After the Caravan Club shooting in the butt, and the placement of the bug, I'm not sure he has the ass for the job.

Mark Eldridge was whacked back in 2002 in Candelino's Cafe in Somerville. It's probably one of the last hits in the region. Shot in the face in a crowded bar.

Bill Ierardi was acquitted in the Black Friars Massacre in 1978 but he most likely did it. He died in 2001.

Gigi refers to Jackie Salemme as Jack the Ripper. Never heard him called that. He says he was a blood thirsty guy "who ordered up several murders with the indifference of a man ordering a cheeseburger at McDonalds." I was not aware of this reputation. Also mentions Jackie living in Southie on the same block of Stevie Flemmi and Connolly.
If nobody sees it, it didn't happen.
