Talk:John Finiello

Notability
I found John Finiello's name highlighted as an external link in the Mickey Duffy article, in connection with a raid on the Rising Sun breweries in Elizabeth, New Jersey, on September 19, 1930. Finiello's murder seems to be a turning point in Duffy's life. While the external link gave some information and the ATF website gave more about the circumstances of his death. A Google search of his name revealed his son's obituary, mentioning Finiello's wife's name and Finiello Senior's death, as well as a bottle collection website citing a September 20, 1930, Daily News report saying that Finiello was an "... ace of Philadelphia raiders, who had a reputation for being incorruptible", which hints that there is a lot more to be told about Finiello, his life and the raid. There is a Wanted Poster for Albert I. Silverberg in connection with the murder. A geneologists wiki indicates there are both marriage and war records in existence. The newspapers of the time covered the murder, subsequent investigations, arrests,  and related events. The raid appears to be covered by several books, I cited two, but there are others. While these sources are just what I can find on-line, I suspect a newspaper search of the time would reveal many more reports. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to access such off-line American newspaper collections. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 02:53, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
