Outside of this alleged Marcello confession— who knows what the larger context was?—no hard evidence has emerged of a mob role in the JFK assassination. But it is curious that the tape has not been released – and it should be.
Rosselli was found asphyxiated in a 55 gallon metal drum in a Florida bay after he began testifying about the JFK assassination and then went missing. Rosselli had cooperated with CIA to plan the assassination on Castro. Supposedly he was taken out by the Chicago mob, and they may have been involved, yet so were other elements.
Jeff Stein: There is also the testimony of Frank Ragano that he delivered the order from Hoffa to Marcello to kill JFK.
