Al Capone's Son Threatened To Kill Late Senator Ted Kennedy Just Weeks After His Brother Robert Was Assassinated

Al Capone's Son Threatened To Kill Late Senator Ted Kennedy Just Weeks After His Brother Robert Was Assassinated:

"It is likely to fuel conspiracy theories that the mob was involved in the 1963 assassination of President Kennedy.

According to the file, a man overheard Capone, 50, make a call from a public phone at the New England Oyster House in Coral Gables, Florida, on June 24, 1968.

At one point in the conversation, witnesses claimed he said: 'If Edward Kennedy keeps fooling around he was going to get it, too.'

Capone identified himself after asking the operator to bill the call to his home in Palm Island and he 'appeared intoxicated', the report states.

Despite being the son of a mob figure Capone - who died in 2004, is thought to have led a law-abiding life, including working as a florist.

The file also contained two letters warning Ted Kennedy against speaking publicly in Ocala, Florida, during a visit in 1972."
