Who can have a Catholic funeral? = Answer:

History has proven that in RC it doesn't matter how corrupt or evil you are, or what you have done just so long as you or your relatives have the money to pay up and grease the skids and palms of those in power within the RC church. This also holds true for marriage annulments; just ask Teddy, or Al Capone... oh you can't, they are is still dead.

This also holds true for taking communion, you can be a powerful RC politician and kill (Teddy boy) or support the murder of unborn MILLIONS for years and "the church" will perpetually give you a pass and let you partake... just so long as they continue to get their cut and their influence. Just ask Kerry, Dean, Pelosi, etc...

Um, I don't think Al Capone had a Catholic funeral. Mobsters, nowadays, aren't really allowed. The NY mob actually has its own cemetery, St.John the Baptist, which isn't consecrated. Being buried in an unconsecrated cemetery is just as big an issue to Catholics as not having a Catholic funeral.

I certainly hope Teddy reconciled with God before his death and had a true general confession. That's between him and God. May God have mercy on his soul.
