Billybob - I didn't know you had resided in MD - so did I. Didn't one of Nancy's brothers get charged with rape about 1954? Not the one who was mayor!! And you are 100% correct about the whole lot of them being corrupt.

Nancy's brother, Tommy D'Alesandro, III, did become Mayor after his father held the job. Your memory is correct. Young Tommy had a rape charge dropped when the witness declined to testify. Later, he had a bribery charge dropped when the man who paid the bribe mysteriously disappeared. (He turned up after the charges were dropped, in a mobbed up casino in Las Vegas.)

Fine family, the D'Alesandros.
