What year do you know TD?

It seems likely that the "Ruling Council" in Michigan later detected by Senate investigators actually was formed in 1940s. The council reportedly included Guglielmo Tocco, Joseph Zerilli, Angelo Meli, "Papa John" Priziola and Peter Licavoli.



The file says that in 1927 there was a war in Detroit and that "at the time" Capone allegedly visited Zerilli. If you ask me, the meeting/meetings possibly occurred sometime around 1930/1931 when Capone was officially recognized as the real power in Chicago. I personally believe that the year of 1927 was "little bit early" for Capone to be involved in the establishing of the "new" national Cosa Nostra network. Who knows, maybe Im wrong?! lol
