Memorandum to Mr. DeLoach , Re: Samuel M. Giancana of a gangland slaying. Nevertheless, we have a responsi- bility to alert local authorities to an impending gangland murder. () The informant,[____—i has advised our Chicago Office that he has no intention of going through with any gangland slaying and he intends to become "ill" so as to avoid any involvement in this slaying. An illness on the part of the informant could delay the plans to kill Blasi, but would not eliminate him entirely from any future planned slaying of Blasi. Accordingly, it is believed that if Po parole board called him in and questioned him concerning his activities and associates with the idea of revocation of parole, if necessary, that his involvement in this matter would be voluntarily terminated by Giancana and Buccieri. (4) SAC Johnson believes that he can disseminate this information concerning the planned murder to State's Zl\|: Attorney D n a confidential basis, thus accomplishing | notification to authorities and at the same time arranging for parole board action against which should serve to eliminate him from involvemen n Ss planned killing.//) wen re eee - BE ay ee a ee a . aan . aa . an ACTION: SAC Marlin Johnson is being instructed to furnish the foregoing to the State's Attorney Dan Ward, Cook Count on a confidential basis and arrange, if possible, for[ *] to be called in by his parole b ith the idea of revocation of parole today. the informant, is presently on parole on local bad check charges. He has previously been involved in a killing while incarcerated in Tennessee. /u) NW 45792 DociId:32287825 Page 3
