Eeenie, meenie, miney, mo... Marilyn & the Kennedy boys. “Gianni Russo, who played Carlo Rizzi in The Godfather", details Marilyn Monroe’s death in his upcoming book, "Hollywood Godfather: My Life in the Movies and the Mob". The 75-year-old claims he had an on-and-off affair with the Hollywood legend, Monroe, beginning when he was 16 and she was 33. Russo has a photo of the two of them together at the CalNeva Lodge, a resort on the California-Nevada border, taken just three days before her death on August 5, 1962. He says the man behind the camera was Chicago crime boss, Sam Giancana. ‘It was taken three days before she was found dead in Los Angeles of what coroners deemed to be a drug overdose,’ he said. Russo claims the mob and Giancana were after Monroe to get to President John F. Kennedy. According to the Daily Mail, the alleged plan was to film Monroe in a threesome with JFK and Robert Kennedy and use the tape to blackmail the president into invading Cuba and returning the island’s casinos to organized criminals. However, the president never showed up at the resort. Russo claims Monroe learned of the plot and threatened to report the mob to the media. When Robert Kennedy heard of Monroe’s plan, he plotted her death to stop her, says Russo. ‘It had to be Bobby. No one else would kill her. The mob would not have done it. They liked her. She was that party girl. Give her a couple pills, a couple drinks and she’ll ____ everyone,’ Russo told the New York Post.”
”Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead was as outgoing as could be— he was having a great time (on the shoot.) What subsequently turned out to be the most intriguing moment, however, came when Jerry smiled and held up his open right hand, and I shot the picture I now call ‘Jerry Waving.’ I didn't think anything of it when I clicked the shutter but when I printed it I kept trying to do with my finger what he had apparently done with his finger; I thought he had just been fooling around, bending his finger backwards or forward or something, but I couldn't make it happen on my hand. It was a long time before I learned that his brother had actually chopped off a piece of his finger when they both were quite young. Jerry usually kept that missing digit out of sight. Most people, even his fans, didn't know about it and here he was, holding it up for the world to see and for me to photograph. I remember that moment as another photographic gift, this time from Jerry Garcia to me.” ~ Baron Wolman
