MLK assassination

please add a chapter about Marcello's connections to the MLK assassination. For those who can speak German, good info is found in a documentary about the assassination of MLK 85.197.16.12 (talk) 15:21, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Department of Corrections

Carlos Marcello did not die in prison. He was released a few years before his death. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.84.236.17 (talk • contribs)

Name

His name at birth, according to Sifakis's Mafia Encyclopedia (p301) was Calorso Minicari. Trekphiler 15:59, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Calogero Minacori. The story goes that when the family first made it to New Orleans the man Marcello's father was working for on a plantation had the same last name and wanted his dad to change it so there wouldn't be any confusion (or maybe from some ego type thing)and so it was changed to Marcello. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.248.14.246 (talk) 19:14, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Picture

that picture is clearly Joe Bonanno. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.86.116.65 (talk • contribs)

Death

This statement is not accurate - He returned to his white marble, two-story mansion overlooking a golf course in Metairie. "overlooking the golf course in Metairie" I grew up 5 blocks from Carlos Marcello's home in Metairie, and lived there from 1966 until 1989. Carlos Marcello's home did not overlook a golf course. Carlos Marcello's house was in an upscale area of Metairie, a half block from Lake Pontchartrain. Which that area did not have a golf course.

Fixed – ChikagoDeCuba, thank you! - Location (talk) 12:58, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

Neither of these are quite accurate. The house Marcello died in does not overlook but is across the street from Metairie Golf Course on Vine St. Maybe you can see some of the green from the second story but.....The house mentioned near the lake was also his that he had lived in for a few years prior to prison on Clifford Dr, also in Metairie. His brother Joe also had a house on Clifford. Marcello owned a lot of property and had a few houses. There's also one on Barataria Ave I found. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.248.14.246 (talk) 19:10, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Sources?

This article is horribly sourced i.e. not at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.158.48.162 (talk) 07:33, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Too controversial

This contains a lot of conspiracy theory content. It is questionable whether all of this content is appropriate but certainly without citations this needs to be removed.

Is somebody actively maintaining the article?

Plotting against the president

This section appears to be completly unsourced and possibly a copy of this link http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/JFKmarcello.htm —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.195.223.95 (talk) 11:12, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

I agree, the entire section is completely uncited. Request removal or at the very least proper citations. BipolarBear0 (talk) 01:01, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Mafia Kingfish

A 600 page book was written about this mobster and it isn't even mentioned!

Carlos was the driving force behind killing both JFK and RFK. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.15.222.8 (talk) 19:25, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
