Former Mafia boss Michael Franzese says the Assassination of JFK was a mob hit | Jeremy Vine On 5

[@Boomhauer11x]

I believe that there's alot more to the JFK assassination then the Warren commission says and the fact that the federal government is still shielding documents that could shed light on what really happened speaks volumes.

[@HellcatMad]

Why did John Jr call biden a traitor? Infographics new video mentions 2 Oswalds. Why did a young biden look so much like oswald?

You should watch 'The Men Who Killed Kennedy'. It's free on KZbin and it's over 7 hrs long. You'll learn quite a bit. There's a ton the Warren Commission hid from the public, along with many other people.

It didn't help that the Secret Service were out getting drunk the night before and were severely hung over. I do not believe the FBI or Lyndon Johnson had anything to do with it. There were two crimes on November 22nd. One was the assasination of the President which I believe was the mob. The second was to cover it up which I believe had many players trying to cover their a**.

[@BST-lm4po]

The Mob wasn't powerful enough to take out JFK (and get away with it). Otherwise a communist hippie named Castro wouldn't have stolen their casinos and kicked them out of Cuba!

[@markb.freeman8964]

The CIA had been using Mafia hitmen to try and kill the Castro brothers since before the Cuban Revolution. The Kennedy brothers had a coup planned for December 1, 1963 to kill the Castro brothers, make it look like the Soviets did it, and the Cuban people would run the Soviets out of Cuba. The plan was called “Amworld”. Only a few members of Kennedy’s cabinet, the Joint Chiefs of Staff knew of the plot. However, CIA operatives in the Panama City, Panama and, Miami offices leaked the coup plan to their Mafia gunmen. The gunmen, in turn, informed Marcello, Giancana, Roselli, and Trafficante. RFK had deported Marcello and thus, Marcello swore a vendetta on the Kennedys. They knew that once the government found out about the coup plans after the murder of JFK that it would have to be concealed because once the Soviet Union found out it would plunge America into war with the USSR. It was reported that when Marcello was asked what he was going to do about the Kennedys; was he going to hit RFK, that he replied, “If you want to silence a barking dog you cut off the head, not the tail.” Bear in mind that Marcello was the most powerful Godfather in the United States. In fact, he was the ONLY one that did not have to go before the Sicilian Committee to obtain permission for a hit.

Not a crazy theory. Keep in mind while the police was transporting LHO, Jack Ruby ran up and shot him dead with LHO still in cuffs. Ruby did a lot of business with the mob and for him to throw everything away and risk going to prison by shooting him in the open in front of everyone says a lot. That’s a man hired to keep him from talking at all costs.

The mob was definitely involved, Michael is speaking from his side. But the hit was organized by some people in the ranks of the CIA. There should be no question about that now. The least it can be said, if somebody doesn't want to believe the CIA would do that to a U.S. president, is that the CIA's many attempts against Castro (with JFK's approval), backfired.

[@MrTech226]

Michael Franzese was not Mob Boss. He was a Capo of his crew while his father, John "Sonny" Franzese was Under Boss. Sonny was serving 50 years prison term. He finally paroled before his death. Soony didn't want Michael be part of that life. Michael went to medical school to become a doctor. But his father went to prison changed those plans. Michael came back home to support his mom and siblings. Michael stated that he was involved in mostly scams. Woman and turn to Christian Life help Michael away from his past. Michael talks about some of his former life on his channel. But he still keeps his Omerta Oath on certain things. So, his former family or others would not harm him.

[@QHalvorson]

He already broke it, so there is nothing left for him to keep of it. He just knows he’d be playing with fire doing all that.

[@TheTropicotonic13]

Just to be clear (and I'm sure someone else has already pointed this out in the comments) MIchael was never a boss. He rose to the rank of Caporegime (Captain) and was the "boss" of a street crew, but was never the boss of a family.

[@Willpower-74205]

In answering those popular questions about his Mob life (did he kill someone, etc.), Franzese reveals more by what he doesn't say than what he does. He always responds with broad, generalized non-answers and goes on a spiel about "doing what had to be done," or something to that effect. If it didn't happen, he could honestly deny it, and that would be the end of it. I get his reasoning, though. It's one thing to know where most (if not all) of the bodies are buried. It's entirely another to know that you're the one who buried them. In the end, I understand his reluctance when fielding those questions. If I had a history like his, I don't think I'd want all of that to come back and haunt me. The legal ramifications alone would ruin my new life and the reputation I'd built since then. Either way, I wish Mr. Franzese the best of luck in his new life and may he continue to prosper. 😎👍

[@bartschwartz9233]

[@thedooeydecimalsystem]

He says those broad answers only because it doesn’t directly incriminate him.

[@chouseification]

Since he was a member after a certain date, he likely had to "make his bones" to join... and by that point it often meant a direct contract, not as in the past where you were in a crew that did a contract (even driver got credit). He will continue to be vague, even if they made him shoot somebody who really had it coming.

The version I believe was Charlie Nicoletti, Johnny Roselli, and James Files were in Dallas Nov 22, 1963. Files was ex-military special ops CIA mission man and Chicago outfit enforcer. Files had his picture taken by Oswald, who showed him around Dallas before the assassination, which puts him there at that time. I believe Files used a Remington Fireball, given to him by his handler David Atlee Phillips, with a mercury round to shoot Kennedy from the grassy knoll. He had the training, the associations, and his knowledge of Dallas and Dealey Plaza and the pertinent players, are remarkable. I'm sickened by the media's laughable insistence that Oswald did it. L Fletcher Prouty of the CIA said it was a professional hit and that Oswald was a patsy. Prouty was in Antarctica on CIA assignment to keep him out of the loop and knew something was up the day after the assassination when he already saw Oswald's picture in an Australian newspaper. Oswald was at the 2nd floor lunchroom of the Schoolbook Depository the whole time. Oswald made it to the Texas Theater hoping to rondezvous with David Atlee Phillips, also his handler, but he was double crossed. Oswald spoke fluent Russian and served as a radar operator at Atsugi Naval Base. They didn't assign dummies to Atsugi and Oswald was no dummy. His military file contains treatment for an STD, but there's a notation, "service connected, non-disciplinary" as he likely contracted VD while gathering intel from Japanese prostitutes with Communist ties.

It had to come from a high rear building from 20 degrees or more. Perhaps rooftop shot from DAL TEX building. Bullets never extracted from Connally. Source: Orlando Sentinel, July 17, 1993 6. Rear entry 5.56mm lower skull or high neck. This bullet came from rear following car by Agent Hickey when he lost his balance while retrieving a locked and loaded AR15 from the limo floor. He accidentally hit Kennedy at a 8 degree from horizontal angle while his thumb unlocked the rifle Agent Hickey unlocked the rifle with his thumb as he picked it up. His thumb rests on the locking arm. As the car lurched forward, he pressed the trigger and hit JFK. A lurch forward will drive his finger backward to fire unintentionally. The book “Mortal Error” explains this accident. As he swiveled his body to the rear, this puts force on the trigger finger during this motion. Also he is under stress. He is losing his balance. Also, he was standing on the sloping rear seat. He lost his balance as he turned around to point at the shooter. Try standing on a rear seat while a car accelerates. The Agents around Hickey went into cover up mode at the Parkland hospital storm drain. This guilt by Agents cause them to cancel the autopsy and quickly get the body out of Texas. The 6th floor shots were from a higher angle, likely 20 degrees--go look it up. Read “Mortal Error” kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXW8f4Cijalob9E 7.

Bullet is explosive since round is high speed 3200 fps from this scoped 11' barrel pistol. TOTALS 4 rounds hit JFK, 2 in the head, 2 in body 2 rounds hits Connelly in wrist and leg 2 rounds miss hit road, curb. 1 round tunnels under grass southside of Elm TOTAL 9 shots P C Price said he heard 5 shots kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYLEk2d9fpeUncU Witnesses to the shooting. At least one was murdered. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3umdIpth5eVkLc . The photo has not been altered or airbrushed. I will explain why. Firstly, his wife took the shot. The problem is the nose shadow, it falls straight down on his face to his upper lip. But the leg shadows show the sun to be creating angled shadows. So why don't the leg shadows and the nose shadows match? This is because the nose shadow falls on a face/head which is TILTED. This realigns the shadow to make it look like it is going straight down TO THE GROUND.. But it isn't. The head has been tilted so now the shadow has a new position which is straight down ON HIS FACE, BUT NOT STRAIGHT DOWN COMPARED TO THE LEG SHADOWS. It is like moving the dial of a wristwatch instead of the hands of the wristwatch to reset the time. The nose shadow goes straight down ON HIS FACE. But HIS FACE IS TILTED about 10 degrees. Therefore, his FACE RE-FIGURES THE LOGIC OF THE SHADOW. Explained another way, The nose shadow is not 90 degree perpendicular to the ground, it is aligned with his NOSE, and his NOSE and face are TILTED ABOUT 10 DEGREES. The reason this confuses viewers is because they think of his face/head as being straight up perpendicular with THE GROUND. IT ISN'T. THE HEAD IS TILTED. IF THE HEAD WERE PERFECTLY PERPENDICULAR WITH THE GROUND, the nose shadow would be angled about 10 degrees across his upper lip, similar to the shadows on the ground in back of his legs. BUT HIS HEAD IS TILTED. This makes the nose shadow go straight down his face, a face which is tilted!

None of this is a slight, just stating all that I ever read or seen in a documentary.

JFK wound was made by a high velocity round like a 5.56 calibre. The only rifle in the area were carried by the men in the car behind him. It's was friendly fire from the guards with an M16 reacting after they heard the shots coming from LHO. This was a cover up and why the CIA wanted to recover JFK's brain tissue at the time of the autopsy to no one would find the fragments from the discharge from the M16. The rounds break up on impact, that is why so many people received injuries in the car as well as why JFK's head broke apart on impact. You can see that in the footage because his wife reached out to collect part of his skull but one of the bodyguards riding on the back of the car made her sit back down.

You might actually be on to something here. The first shots probably were from the 6.5 creedmor and the kill shot was probably the 5,56. It’s weird that I saw this comment because looking at the wound I thought it had to be a 5.56 as well. Governor Conally allegedly was hit by the 5.56 as well even he said he believed it was different from what JFK got hit with. He probably didn’t realize that JFK was hit with more than one caliber. There was definitely more shooters than LHO I definitely think he was involved but I don’t believe he fired the kill shot.

Ruby very quickly after that… That should be enough information to get you on track. There was a big mutual interest from the CIA and the Maffia to eliminate JFK, that is 100% sure…..

You should've seen him get angry with Sammy "the Bull". He lost his composure. He was fuming mad. Wouldn't expect it from him, but we're all human. It was because Sammy, who was a rat, his confession got a lot of guys put away, tried to say to Michael that he was also a rat. Michael did confess, that's why he only got 10 years. With what they had on him he should still be in prision. But as Michael says it, his testimonial never lead to anyone going to jail. He was careful what he said.

Great interview Mr. F.

[@TheTraveler33]

I will NEVER believe it was a mob hit. They might have been involved somewhere, but it was not a mob hit man. Who could have done it? Plus there were multiple shooters. It would have required at least 3 master snipers. Contrary to movies like The Professional, mob hit men that are snipers are rare if they even exist at all. They would have to have experience. Most likely military history as a sniper. So the feds would know exactly who would be capable of such hard to make shots. If there were any mobster with that type of history, they would have him under a magnifying glass constantly. There is zero doubt that the ONLY people that could have made the shots and covered it up are the CIA. I have always said that and will stick to it until absolutely proven otherwise.

[@deltawhiskey1398]

There were multiple shooters and the mob was most definitely involved along with the CIA and a group of Cuban exiles. You forget, there were plenty of made guys who were ex-military in the mob.

[@TheTraveler33]

@@deltawhiskey1398 Just ex military doesn't matter. As I said, it would HAVE TO BE an ex military SNIPER! And the best of the best at that. I know an ex marine sniper. He couldn't take a shot like that. Not just any infantryman could do it of course either. Perhaps you haven't seen some of the documentaries that showed what it would take to pull off the shots? The CIA would NEVER rely on mobsters to take those shots. Sorry, but that's just fantasy thinking and isn't realistic. As stated, there were at least 3 people involved. That's 3 professional does it for a living snipers. And if the mob had people like that, who are they??? We can't pretend there is some fantasy members that we don't know about. Guys like that would be known by everyone especially the feds. Also, why didn't they kill anyone else? I'm not aware of sniper scenarios being done to other mobs it's always up close and personal. Unless you can provide me with a list of possible candidates by name, it is just fantasy thinking. People want everyone including the mob and bigfoot involved because it makes for a fantastic story. But in reality, it is almost always much simpler. Don't forget also that they fewer people involved, the better. Only a fool gets multiple groups involved and has to depend on so many moving parts.

There was a documentary where a couple of guys looked at it, lineing up bullets, types of bullets, witness accounts, why the secret service guys didn't want the autopsy done where it should be and other cover ups, it looks like the first bullet hit the ground, the second one went in the presidents neck, the agent who was in the car behind I believe, he reached down and took up an automatic rifle from the floor and as he raised his hand up and turned off the safety switch, instead of switching the safety off when the barrel of the gun was pointing towards the book depositry, whilst looking back to where he heared the shots being fired, the presidents car and the one he was in started to speed up, causing him to jolt and he pressed the trigger and that was where the bullet came from that killed the president, it is a superb documentary and not something that I believe would be looked into or ever acknowledged now, because the agent has passed away and if it is true, then it would be a terrible accident.

It was a CIA hit for sure. Allan Dulles's benefactor Gen Ed Lansdale was photographed in Dealey plaza in front of the "3 tramps" minutes after the assassination.

A paragraph from one of Lansdale's books called "the assassinations manual for Latin America" states "If possible professional criminals will be hired to carry out specific, selective "jobs" " "Jobs" means Murders. This is the exact same technique that was applied to JFK's murder.
