"What were they thinking?"

I read a book written by Sam Giancana's nephew. It was so full of BS. Of course Giancanna was long dead. His nephew said they broke into Marilyn Monroe's house at the request of JFK and killed her with a suppository. Then he said they killed JFK because Bobby was pursuing the mob. They said that JFK was owned and bought by the mob. Such BS.
