(Deceased) was in some outfit with Jack Ruby and knew the real story behind the JFK assassination.
Idk if that was true or not, but she did have a pic of them with Ruby.

A friend of my dad would occasionally call him up and ask if we wanted a new TV or VCR or Ford Ranger pickup truck. We never accepted. He was just a low level associate.
My mom's best friend's dad, however, was a capo in the outfit. He took me to a bears game once and drove his cadillac (of course) up on the sidewalk next to soldier field. I said, "can we park here?" He said, "oh, i'm a friend of the mayor." 8 year old me had no concept of this. A cop came walking over, then saw him and just gave a wave and walked away. Unsurprisingly, we also had very good seats.
