Sam Giancana – Master Of The Mob, Murderer Of JFK?

Forget Al Capone.

Capone ran the Chicago Outfit brutally and very publicly for just a couple of years before being sent to prison on income tax charges. Tony Accordo and Paul Rccca ran the Outfit until 1957 when they turned over day to day control to Sam “Momo” Giancana.

Much More Powerful Than Capone!

Sam Giancana would rise to a position much, much more powerful than the thuggish Al Capone ever dreamt of achieving!

Giancana feuded with Robert Kennedy as he became the CIA liaison with the Mob. Unlike Capone,Sam Giancana vastly expanded the operations of the Chicago Outfit into Las Vegas, into California and became the most powerful Mafia leader in the country. He was connected to JFK through Peter Lawford and Frank Sinatra. According to a number of histories, he and John F. Kennedy actually shared a mistress in common! Some believe Sam Giancana was behind the murder of JFK. And just before he was set to testify under oath before the Senate, Sam Giancana was murdered in his home. A home that was under FBI surveillance and “guarded by the police!

Cuba

When the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) planned to assassinate Fidel Castro, the Agency called on mobster Sam Giancana to oversee the unlawful murder of the Cuban dictator. While the complicated and illegal plot ultimately failed, the implications were clear.  The CIA was working closely with Sam Giancana – the most important and influential Mafia leader in the USA. J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI only learned of the plot because they were tapping Giancana’s phone and watching him 24/7!

Women

After he was widowed, Sam Giancana carried on a very public romance with super popular, squeaky clean, all-American girl Phyllis McGuire. As one of the wholesome McGuire Sisters, Phyllis projected a sprightly, virginal image. In reality, her torrid affair with the leader of the Chicago Syndicate was being listened to and tape-recorded in real time by the FBI!  Before his intense relationship with McGuire, he consorted with Marilyn Monroe (some say he caused her death) and other famous women.  One of the most fascinating stories involves his relationship with Judith Campbell – who was also a mistress of John F. Kennedy!  She claimed that she arranged meetings and carried messages between the two! The stories are perplexing and fascinating. You will not want to miss this one-of-a-kind multimedia presentation.
