C’ ™, i * , ! ; ( “ . ed ~ . 4, PG 92-226 Because of the status in the rackets of all three men, the Newark Office was requested to ascertain * the whereabouts of these individuals and possible acquain- | tances met while in the Atlantic City area. Subsequent : » investigation by the.-Newark Division failed to reflect any ; ' indication that LA ROCCA and his associates were staying i a in any of the motels close to the boardwalk at Atlantic so _ City. ; af The Miami Division, after conducting weekly" ;; checks of the LA ROCCA residence, at 2073 South East L5th | i |Court, Bel Aire, Fla., indicated to the Pittsburgh Division i 'on September 23, 1964, that this residence was not / occupied during the entire summer of 1964. On September 17, 1964, PG T-4 furnished the following information; LA ROCCA remains in the Pittsburgh-Ingomar, Pa., area and has not engaged.in any extensive travel ‘since i his return home from Bel Aire, Fla., during the second . - FT week of April, 1964. His former daughter-in-law, . PATRICIA, is again using the name PAT FESSLER and has been employed for a little more than a year at Zayres Department Store on McKnight Road as a salesgirl. She works from 9 AM to 6 PM daily. The FESSLERs see the elder LA ROCCAs - quite often and allow the LA ROCCAs to take care of PAT'S | \ baby almost every weekend. Both Mr. and Mrs. LA ROCCA . ;. ; are extremely proud of their only grandson and see to it — ot that he wants for nothing. —- | | t | PAT FESSLER is very unhappy with her present . , circumstances but can do nothing to elevate them or obtain | greater financial security. She has heard that her former: husband, the adopted son of SEBASTIAN JOHN LA ROCCA, has | remarried against the wishes of his parents and is now ‘| working instead of attending ‘the University of Miami, where -he had been accepted for the semester beginning in September, | 1964. His plans to further his education may have under- gone a change, much to his father's disgust. This is a.very recent rumor and could not be verified by other sources available to this informant. The LA ROCCAs are very OTHER 4 close-mouthed about personal affairs and do not even mention young JOHN when they visit the[_____] residence | to pick up their randson. | | } ‘ . - ; ~4- NW 45836 DociId:32332660 Page 4
