Kill a man, he dies once. Kill his son, he dies 10,000 deaths.” Prior to the election of John F. Kennedy in 1960, his father Joe Kennedy, a former bootlegger during prohibition, asked for a favor from mob boss Sam Giancana and his Chicago outfit: to destroy ballot boxes to ensure a win for the younger Kennedy. However, during JFK’s reign as president, the national organized crime syndicate came under fire by way of the newly appointed Attorney General Bobby Kennedy, resulting in several convictions.

Our story is told by somebody who was there – Sam Giancana’s brother Pepe.
