Book Reviews of Cullotta: The Life of a Chicago Criminal, Las Vegas Mobster and Government Witness
Book Review: Not impressed.
Summary: 3 Stars
I feel a bit dissapointed in Mr. Griffins book. Not the subject matter or the story but the way he paints Cullotta as a family man and a down on his luck bad guy gone good. Frank Cullotta is a common criminal who got off lite and was in a major motion picture that he was paid for being in. I am a bit confused as to why a retired lawman would be such a hero worshiper to a punk like Cullotta. This could have been a better book and I must disagree with the five star reviewers many of whom's opinion I respect and generally agree with. I guess this time we will just have to agree to disagree.
Summary of Cullotta: The Life of a Chicago Criminal, Las Vegas Mobster and Government Witness
From burglary to armed robbery and murder, infamous bad guy Frank Cullotta not only did it all, in Cullotta he admits to it -- and in graphic detail. This no-holds-barred biography chronicles the life of a career criminal who started out as a thug on the streets of Chicago and became a trusted lieutenant in Tony Spilotro's gang of organized lawbreakers in Las Vegas. Cullotta's was a world of high-profile heists, street muscle, and information -- lots of it -- about many of the FBI's most wanted. In the end, that information was his ticket out of crime, as he turned government witness and became one of a handful of mob insiders to enter the Witness Protection Program.General Books
