Larry Henry- Veteran Print & Broadcast Journalist/Stories on the Mob

Send us a text


We begin by learning about Larry’s background which includes his
positions as a Crime Reporter (Tulsa, OK), Political Editor (LV
Sun), and Press Secretary for Nevada Governor Bob Miller. We hear
the story behind how he was approached for this position and how
this along with his love for journalism all ties into his passion
for learning about the mafia. Larry writes a monthly column for
The Mob Museum. 


Speaking of the Mob we talk about:


-Hot Springs, AR


-Frank Costello hit that had a tie to the Tropicana in 1957


-Chicago Outfit


-A FBI investigation of killings in KC that ended up exposing the
skim in Las Vegas


-Las Vegas Mob Stories that include Tony Spilotro, Lefty
Rosenthal, and Ned Day (Investigator Reporter)


 


What may have caused the decline of the Mob in Vegas along with
was Vegas better then or now? Larry started the LV Mafia History
Face Book Page (See Links) and why the Mob is such a hot topic
right now. Finally, a story about a photo in the Mob Museum that
has a tie to Tommy’s family. (This photo has since been removed
at the museum).
