Newly "discovered" FBI documents reportedly contained information on Carlos Marcello, the New Orleans mob boss, concerning the John F. Kennedy assasination.In Milwaukee, Papa John Alioto ran the Milwaukee Mob from 1952 until 1961 when he handed the reigns over to his son-in-law Frank Balistrieri.
Papa John's son Joe(who had a fatal heart attack in his 40's), had a son also named John. Born in 1949, John J. Alioto became a lawyer after college. He was a former Assistant State's Attorney for Cook County, Illinois, who then went on to private law practice. According to Tim Shanahan in his book, (Running With The Champ), at one point in the late 1970’s John had only one client. That client just happened to be the godfather of the New Orleans mafia, Carlos Marcello. It was around that time (1978), there was an ongoing investigation of Marcello who was suspected in the possible mob planning of John F. Kennedy’s assassination! Marcello went to prison in the early 1980’s, convicted of other unrelated charges. After more than six years behind bars, his conviction was overturned and he was released in 1989, and died in 1993. Lawyer John Alioto had a notable, extensive career as an attorney until he passed away in 2006 at the age of 56, living in Illinois.
