#218~ May 5, 2025: "Combing The JFK Documents: Who Shot Sam Giancana?"
IN THIS EPISODE~ We are back to our 322-page FBI file (from the JFK Declassified Records), this time to delve deeper into the 1975 murder of Mob Boss Sam Giancana, one of three upper-echelon organized crime bosses who were both recruited by CIA to assassinate Fidel Castro in the early '60s, and suspected of having a hand in the assassination of JFK in 1963.We'll take a close look at a Chicago Outfit associate of Giancana's (Hint: NOT Chuckie Nicoletti) whom the FBI considered a prime suspect in the murder, a statement made by a long-time Outfit soldier decades later implicating this same man, and ask the same question we asked in our last episode, regarding the gruesome murder of John Roselli: Was Giancana's murder to keep him quiet about the Castro/JFK plots, or unrelated Mafia Business?JOIN THE CONVERSATION.Written & Hosted by Doug Campbell.Recorded & Engineered by Curado Scaranucci, Jr. for Drop-D Podcast Productions.Music:"Pray", by King's X."Protect Ya Neck (The Jump Off '99)", by Wu-Tang Clan."Goin' So Good", by ZZ Top.

IN THIS EPISODE~ We find ourselves studying a fascinating 322-page FBI file concerning the murders of two-out-of-three organized crime figures recruited by The CIA to assist with the assassination of Fidel Castro in the early 1960s- Sam Giancana (murdered in 1975), and John Roselli (killed in 1976).In episode #217, we start with Roselli, and follow along with the FBI and Florida law enforcement authorities as they explore very early leads and early suspected hit-men in the infamous and gruesome slaying of an infamous and notorious mobster.Was Roselli's death tied to his knowledge of the CIA/Mafia-Castro Plots? His alleged knowledge of the operation in Dealey Plaza? Other, unconnected La Cosa Nostra business? All of the above?PLUS--- we'll correct some recent incorrect-yet-authoritatively-stated-nonsense regarding the working-relationship dynamic between Air Force General Ed Lansdale and CIA's William K. Harvey. (The "DisinfoTrain" really never stops with this subject, does it? Amazing.)JOIN THE CONVERSATION.Written & Hosted by Doug Campbell.Recorded & engineered by Momo Scaranucci, Jr. for Drop-D Podcast Productions.Music:"Domino", by Masters Of Reality"The Gas Face", by 3rd Bass"Punk Ass Boyfriend", by ZZ Top
