mafia bombings
2.09.2004
There's quite a fascinating series on the mafia bombings that took place in Tucson in the '60s at the Arizona Daily Star. A pretty good read. What a movie this story would make, taking it from the different perspectives of the mob associate Pasley, the FBI agent Hale, and the two men who were arrested for the Joe Bonanno bombing, Stevens and Dunbar. A number of intriguing figures are accessory to the history, as well, from the Bonanno family to the DeConcinis, Mo Udall, and of course the infamous J. Edgar Hoover. I'm ashamed to say I hadn't known that such things had happened in my hometown.
