AR . Remytel 8/27/61, captioned "CRIMINAL INTELLIGENCE PROGRAM, TAMPA DIVISION," and Buairtel 5/29/61 captioned "SANTO TRAFFICANTE, JR., aka, AR." Misur survey of the residence of SANTO TRAFFICANTE, JR., 2805 Bristol Avenue, Tampa, revealed the following information: Subject lives in a one-story yellow brick house having a barrel tiled roof. This house has at least three bedrooms and two baths with attached two-car garage having ‘* an inside entrance to the house. The house has a front. door, facing Bristol Avenue and a rear door facing the back yard, The back yard is completely surrounded by a six-foot chain link fence with three strands of barbed wire around the top of the fence. All windows and doors appear to be of a secure type of construction. The garage doors of this house are operated electric-— ally by one or more of the four automobiles used by members of the household. This house is located in an upper middle class “neighborhood with a new home being constructed on one side and with neighbors on the other side and to the rear where no alley exists. A small park faces the front of the house with neigh- bors living directly across the park facing the subject's <° 2 residence. K Bureau -”~ Tampa (66-231) (66-75) SJL: Ki , vai ; wo: r t ‘ fy, =.

TP 66-231 The house under construction next door to the subject's home is in the early stages of construction, having only form and ‘concrete work done at the present time. This house is being constructed by HERBERT GOLDBERG, Assistant State Attorney in charge of criminal cases for Hillsborough County. The house on the other side is occupied by Mr. and Mrs. PHILIP PORTER ‘DALTON, who have no chiidren and are elderly persons who are ~ approaching the state of being senile. They are not believed ‘to be reliable enough to consider this as a plant site, although these two persons have been opened as PCIs to attempt to obtain information regarding subject's activity. This has proved iruitless to. date: Investigation is being conducted to determine the reliability of neighbors to the rear of subject's residence. A garage apartment directly to the rear of subject's house would furnish a clear, unobstructed view of the rear of subject's house and would be an excellent location for an antenna to receive any type of radio transmission from subject's house. Access to this apartment, which appears vacant at the present time, would be from a street not under general observation from subject's residence. A physical observation plant. has been established at the home of SAM MENSH, 2404 Bristol Avenue, at the corner ‘ of Lakeview and Bristol, giving an excellent visual coverage of the front entrance of subject's home and of activity in and out of his garage. No means of exit from the rear of the house exists except into the fenced-in rear yard, and a gate- type entrance to this fenced-in yard opens to the front of the home adjacent to the garage. — Presently living in subject ' s home are five adults--: Mr. and Mrs. SANTO TRAFFICANTE, JR., Mr. and Mrs. AUGUST PANIELLO, who are the daughter and son-in-law of subject, and SARAH ANN TRAFFICANTE, who is a freshman at the University of South . Florida, and is a daughter of subject. It has been noted 3 that SARAH ANN TRAFFICANTE has odd and irregular hours at : the university, where she attends various lectures and classes. A schedule of her hours has been previously obtained. She drives either a Chrysler or a Plymouth automobile to school. ‘She has a boy friend, EDWARD VALDES, who attends the University of Florida at Gainesville; he has visited her on.a daily. basis 'for the past few days.: Subject has been observed to visit the | Docld: 32286666 Page 3
os a. ras a \ ra} . \ ) TP 66-231 the rear of the various houses, and in the case of the subject's house these conductors would extend across the fenced-in back yard. The subject has non-published telephone number RE 6-6973. The type of telephone in subject's house is not known but is likely to be an instrument manufactured by Automatic Electric. Tampa Television Labs, Inc., 510 South Howard Avenue, Tampa, have been seen to appear at subject's home, where they apparently were working on the electronic mechanism which opens the garage doors.  - , . It is noted that SANTO TRAFFICANTE or some other members of the household have a small dog which is usually kept inside the house but appears outside occasionally and. is seen being taken for walks by members of the family. A colored woman believed to be WILLIE MAE JACKSON (ph) has been observed to enter subject's home at irregular and ss ae infrequent intervals. Investigation is being conducted to / he identify this woman and to determine her reliability. It is not known at this time whether this woman has a key to the -TRAFFICANTE residence. oe To obtain access to subject's residence, it is believed that the garage doors could possibly be opened electronically, + allowing access to the garage. A locked door would then have .to be entered. It has not been possible to obtain a key to the TRAFFICANTE residence, nor has a close examination of the type of lock used by subject been made. No access to | . . this. residence could be had at the time of the survey. It appears that due to the location of the house, - the fenced-in back yard, the way the telephone wires leave the . house and extend across the rear yard to the telephone poles, and because of the activity of the occupants of this house, it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to attempt to . extend a line from any. installation inside the house to a plant: located in another area. It is felt that if any installation - could be made, the type of installation using a radio trans- mitter to an antenna located.in the nearby garage apartment to the rear of the house would be the most secure type of installation. 7 Docld: 3272786666 Page 4
