  John Roselli - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1942, Roselli had been indicted on federal labor racketeering charges along with George Browne, former president of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees union, and Willie Bioff, labor racketeer and former pimp.
Roselli (who had specialized in spreading rumors and disinformation to divert suspicion away from the Mafia) is believed by some researchers to have been the chief source of the falsehood that Castro had been behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
In 1968, Roselli had been tried and convicted of illegal residence in the United States (he'd never acquired lawful US residence or citizenship) and had been ordered deported to Italy by the Immigration and Naturalization Service.

 Johnny Roselli - Demopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Roselli's basic claim was that Fidel Castro was responsible for the assassination of Kennedy.
Despite the seriousness of the allegation, the identity of Roselli was not revealed to the public, and the accusation was exposed through a "blind memorandum" prepared by Hoover's FBI and promoted through the press -in other words, it was a public relations ploy sponsored by Lyndon Johnson, J. Edgar Hoover and Mafia envoy, Johnny Roselli.
Roselli was a Mafia operative who had established Washington contacts through his participation in what was publicly exposed to be the CIA/Mafia plots to assassinate Castro, he was not a reliable source who was prepared to expose the truth about the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

A: No, I didn't see Nicoletti pick up Roselli, but because of the liaison that we had had and the discussion that was on board the aircraft, there was no doubt in my mind that Nicoletti was the person that John Roselli was referring to to meet in Dallas on that particular morning.

Heindel, alias "Hidel", who served with Oswald in the Marine Corps in 1959, were dragged before a Grand Jury and prosecuted for perjury, their testimony was effectively censored, because, as Jay Epstein exposed in Counterplot, a convicted perjurer cannot testify in court in Louisiana.
