Death of Apalachin meeting host Joseph Barbara
Joseph Barbara, the so called sick friend of the Apalachin Mafia meeting, died of a heart ailment at 53 after hosting 60 gangsters at his Apalachin home on November 14, 1957. His wife Josephine and sons Peter and Joseph Jr were at his bedside as funeral plans waited on the mother’s recovery from sedation. Barbara faced tax evasion charges in federal court in Syracuse and had been in poor health since a second heart attack on May 29. The Apalachin home was later sold to a developer amid neighbor protests about a potential crime shrine. The story also notes uninvited guests and DDT efficacy for pests and a separate item on fisheries and fireboats.
