Giuliani Trailed by Mob Ties in Family History
The biography Rudy! portrays Rudolph Giuliani as the son of a stickup man and nephew of a mob figure. It claims his father Harold Giuliani was a debt collector for loan sharks, with a violent past, including a Sing Sing sentence and a 1934 milkman robbery. The mayor has offered little comment, noting only his father’s memory as admirable, while the book fuels renewed scrutiny of his rise and public image.
