Regardless of what you see on TV, a proper dumping of a body would not leave someone clothed or wearing a belt or anything that would serve as an identifier or even a clue as to the date.
The Lefty - Spilatro Era was sloppy at the end.
Alan probably knows as much or more than me.
I was in Las Vegas when Rosenthal's car was bombed, by the way. I guess one could make a case for some slop at the end.
I talked to a couple of people about it, and this kind of burial really breaks some basic rules. I have a friend, a young filmmaker who specializes in knowing everything there is to know about La Cosa films. But he is more of an East Coast guy. I'll quiz him when I get a chance. I think he's in Boston right now, working on the The Art Thief, which I assume is an adaptation of the book.
