Those are the dots that are connected. but after that, no dots.

The mafia are corrupt but they’re not stupid. If they were going to go after anyone, they would have gone after Bobby who was spearheading (in appearance) this effort. But even that would be very risky. I also have a feeling the mob knew the Kennedy could be bought. I think they were right.

I think Kennedy’s assassination probably took the mob by surprise like it did everyone else.

I can argue both ways. The mafia was not known for killing public figures and politicians.

On th other hand the Kennedy’s were persecuting them as far as they were concerned and Giancana was worried about jail.

Why kill Bobby when he reported to JFK? If you kill JFK yogurt back at the guy you helped get elected and LBJ would not keep Bobby around.

A lot of people had the motivation to kill; JFK.
