Charles "Trigger Happy"[1] Fischetti (August 11, 1891 – April 11, 1951) was a Chicago mobster, Capone bodyguard and cousin.

Early life

Charles Fischetti was born on March 24, 1901. His mother was called Mary.[2] He had a brother, Nicholas, who was a dentist;[2] two other brothers, Rocco and Joseph, were alleged criminals. He was a cousin of Al Capone.[3][4]

Career

Fischetti started his career as his cousin Al Capone's chauffeur in South Brooklyn.[2] In the 1920s, he helped Capone spread his business in Cicero, Illinois.[2] Fischetti attended the 1946 Havana Conference of Cosa Nostra leaders and received the "murder contract" on Bugsy Siegel.{{Citation needed|date=October 2016}} Fischetti was also good friends with singers Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, the former as early as the 1940s.[8] Upon Al Capone's death in 1947, Fischetti reportedly inherited his mob investments.[2]

Fischetti was called a notorious Chicago gangster in the FBI files.[5] With his brother Rocco, he surrendered 2 April 1951 to the sergeant-at-arms of the United States Senate having been sought to testify before the Senate Crime Investigating Committee (Kefauver committee). Charles Fischetti died nine days later, before he could testify.[6][12]

Personal life and death

Fischetti had a wife, Ann.[2] They resided in Miami Beach, Florida.[3]

Fischetti died of a heart attack on April 11, 1951 in Miami Beach, Florida.[6][7] US30,000 worth of flowers in seven cars were sent to his funeral, which was held at Our Lady of Peace Roman Catholic Church at 561 Carroll Street in Brooklyn.[2] It was attended by 1,500 relatives, most of them women.[2] The Brooklyn Daily Eagle suggested they may have been the wives of organized crime associates.[2] Meanwhile, there were also 12 policemen in uniform and 20 in plainclothes.[2] Fischetti was buried at the Holy Cross Cemetery in Brooklyn, New York City.[2]
