Mob Cop  (English, Paperback, Pascente Fred)

Fred Pascente is the man who links Tony Spilotro, one of Chicago's most notorious mob figures, to William Hanhardt, chief of detectives of the Chicago Police Department. Pascente and Spilotro grew up together on Chicago's Near West Side, and as young toughs they were shaken down by Hanhardt. While Spilotro became one of the youngest made men in Chicago Outfit history, Pascente was drafted into the army and then joined the police department. Soon taken under Hanhardt's wing, Pascente served as his fixer and bagman for more than a decade. Pascente also remained close to Spilotro, making frequent trips to Las Vegas to party with his old friend and help him rob the casinos blind. Mob Cop reveals information about the inner workings of the Outfit, and Fred Pascente's positions as an insider on both the criminal and law enforcement fronts make this story a matchless tell-all.
