[Released under the John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act or TysF (ar use S10 ite, DATE: 11-14-2017 - —_ “ he ~ "74 om F i # ue : é LA 92-1112 As a result of information furnished by LA 4412-C-TE, investigation went forward toward the further penetration of this organization and certain interviews were conducted on 4/29/63 and 5/2/63, which, in turn, led to the eventual development of LA 4448-pc, who is currently an active member . of what he terms locally "the situation" or "the outfit," which he advises is the outgrowth of .the old Mafiosa. The interviews to date, which are two in number, have not fully explored all the ramifications of the "outfit" in this area due to the natural reluctance of the source to fully explain to law enforcement the existence of a secret society such as the "outfit." It is expected that full details will eventually be gained during the ensuing months, which will be furnished to the Bureau and New York as they occur. This report is being kept brief in order that it will reflect only what is considered documented membership and leadership in the organization in this area.
