Originally posted by Rusty: Which long-time Outfit power, a very close friend of late boss Sam Giancana, was murdered in 1985 on orders of Tony Accardo? This mobster had been in the jukebox vending business for years, and had gained significant stature, in fact he was a capo, throughout his career as a certified earner? The reason he was murdered was because of his displeasure at the new administration in charge of the Family. He would sit in his tavern, Horwarth's, all day and badmouth the new bosses within earshot of Accardo's home; insistent that things had been so much better under his buddy Giancana. He was shot in the head at night as he headed home from his outpost.
