Carlos Marcello, Tunisian-American gangster (d. 1993)

Carlos Joseph Marcello (Italian: [marˈtʃɛllo]; born Calogero Minacore [kaˈlɔːdʒero minaˈkɔːre]; February 6, 1910 – March 2, 1993) was an Italian-American crime boss of the New Orleans crime family from 1947 until the late 1980s.

Aside from his role in the American Mafia, he is also notorious for the reason that G. Robert Blakey and others have alleged that Carlos Marcello, Santo Trafficante Jr., and Sam Giancana conspired in the 1963 assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy in retaliation for federal investigations and prosecutions that threatened both the power and the

multibillion-dollar profits of organized crime.
