The last gamble of Tokyo Joe
quote:
Ken Eto rose through the ranks of the Chicago mob, and then it tried to kill him. The underworld would never be the same.

They mention Melrose Park in the article; that's my old neighborhood, where I grew up. Lots of mafiosi. Funny how when you're a kid you're not aware of the shenanigans going on around you...

It's around most urban neighborhoods in one form or another, even in smaller cities. It's just smaller, less professional and less violent.
