The source explores various theories regarding his murder, including famous rumors about burial sites in stadiums and landfills, as well as high-profile confessions like that of Frank Sheeran. Investigators generally believe Mafia figures orchestrated his death to prevent him from reclaiming union control, yet a total lack of physical evidence has prevented any legal resolution.
