He was a Chicago mobster who worked as a manager of a modular motel complex near Lake Lugert, OK. He will tell friends of his that "three other men -- NOT Oswald-- killed the president." He also tells them that a "man named Ruby will kill Oswald tomorrow (11/24/63)."
Sounds pretty convincing to me but of course LNers have said this is not the truth and they have tried to show he was off base. Two things make me believe him (and being a CT kook is NOT one of them). Firstly, he also mentioned this tidbit: "...and in a few days a member of Frank Sinatra's family will be kidnappd just to take some of the attention away from the assassination." Now even Kreskin couldn't predict this wild stuff accurately, but it did happen. Frank Sinatra Jr. was kidnapped and here is the story:

Frank Sinatra had as many mob ties as Ruby (maybe more) so this makes sense to me.
The second thing that makes me believe him is the fact he found floating in a swimming pool with bullet holes in his chest a few weeks after saying these things. Witnesses will say it looked like he was "floating" for at least a week, but maybe two (meaning he could have been killed shortly after making these statements. Being killed as a way of validating what you say in my book.

It appears that Caprio no longer wishes to hang his hat on the Zangretti story. Nice work Tom.

It's amazing just how many people not only knew about the assassination before it happened but they told so many people.
