You have to love a perfectly coiffed, chicly dressed, bejeweled Phyllis McGuire smiling at the reporters and repeating, "No Comment," with effortless charm.
If poor Sam would've known what was coming in ten years,and the fact that even at this point joey doves,Ricca,etc were all using him as a front, Sam wasn't really in charge
He absolutely was in charge, he was the President of the organization while the Accardo and Ricca were the chairmen. Giancana made enormous some of money for the outfit
@@khabbad No, he wasn't. That's why he fled to Mexico after this, and it's why he was murdered shortly after his deportation back to America in 1975. Sam was too "flamboyant" for his bosses who liked to keep things "quiet."
Phyllis Mcguire's long relationship with Giancanna damaged the careers and reputation of the Mcguire sisters. How she could have a romantic relationship with him is beyond my imagination.
She loved him. Easy enough to understand - they say Love is Blind ! When you have all that money & all the connections its power that attracts. Damaged careers ? Actually the McGuire sister's performed for Presidents Nixon / Ford & Bush # 1 long after Momo was knocked off by Tony Spilotro with a 22 caliber pistol ! Publicity goes a long way to keeping a person in the spotlight. 😎
All about having a heart of steel,brass balls and iron fists ! Also a lot of these mobsters were boxing as kids/young adults but left boxing for THAT other life. 🥊
Giancana was 5'9-5'10. Not big by any means, but not a short little guy. I've known some really big guys in my life who were big pussies too once you pressed them hard enough.

Did they release you??? “ I really don’t know “. Phylis’s knew the deal 😂
Boy the way Glenn Miller played, songs that made the hit parade, guys like us we had it made, those were the days - Carroll O Connor
McGuire poured on the Midwest charm.
Yeah, gotta hand it to her, she was class all the way when answering those questions.

I don’t think a guy like Giancana got where he did by being clueless. 🤷♂️

Well... all those male reporters were acting like giddy little girls, so maybe there's a clue.
