Chicago -- Picked up after testifying at a Senate committee's hearing about alleged housing scandals, Luigi Fratto gestures as he is escorted by detectives Thomas Burns and Al Faro. Police reportedly wanted to question him about the recent gangland style slayings of Charles 'Cherry Nose' Gioe and Frank Maritote. Earlier, during the hearing, Fratto was reluctant to answer when asked if he had told the owners of a Des Moines, Iowa night club that he had bought a controlling interest from Gioe. Asked if he were invoking the Fifth Amendment, he replied, "This Amendment sounds bad, it's for Communists." (1954)
