Sam Giancana 
          and John Rosselli (both deceased) are known Mafia/CIA dual operatives. 
          Giancana was the head of the Chicago Mafia for many years and was one 
          of the most powerful, ruthless Mafia bosses that ever lived. Rosselli 
          (born Felippo Sacco) was a "flashy" gangster who had unlimited 
          "clout" from New York to Hollywood, from Las Vegas to Havana, 
          Cuba. Throughout the 1950's, 60's and 70's, the CIA and the Mafia were 
          primarily one and the same. Many people are of the opinion that the 
          two organizations are still closely interconnected today. 
         
           
 Charles 
          Nicoletti started out as a Mafia "enforcer" in Chicago and 
          rose through the ranks to become one of the most trusted associates 
          and a "hitman" for Sam Giancana. Like Giancana and Rosselli, 
          Nicoletti, a quiet, stylish dresser, was a dual operative for the Mafia 
          and the CIA. According to leading CIA-JFK expert, Professor Peter Dale 
          Scott of the University of California at Berkeley, Nicoletti and Rosselli 
          were present in Miami at meetings where anti-Castro Mafia / CIA operations 
          were planned. The confessed assassin, James E. Files, was Nicoletti's 
          personal driver and - in Files' words - "bodyguard" 
          from the early 1960's through the mid 1970's when Nicoletti was shot 
          and burned in his car prior to his testimony before the House Select 
          Committee on Assassinations (HSCA). 
David 
          Atlee Phillips is one of the most controversial CIA agents in history. 
          His name appears literally everywhere in JFK assassination research. 
          He recruited James Files from the military after Files got in trouble 
          and was about to be brought before a court martial. Phillips "sheep-dipped" 
          James Files and had all of his military and CIA records sealed forever. 
          Phillips introduced Files to Oswald and was the person responsible for 
          Oswald showing up at Files' motel room in Mesquite before the assassination. 
          Phillips also gave Files the Remington Fireball XP-100 pistol when it 
          was an experimental model. It was used five times by James Files. JFK 
          was the third time it was used. ONE
