Trump's strategist Kellyanne Conway's organized crime link

While I do know that this all happened well in the past, I do think it is worth sharing.

Jimmy "The Brute" DiNatale a known mob associate from South Jersey was the grandfather of Kellyanne Conway. According to this Atlantic City Press article "Along with her mom, she lived with unmarried aunts Rita and Marie DiNatale and grandmother Antoinette DiNatale in a brick rancher just off the White Horse Pike in the working-class Atco section of Waterford Township in Camden County." (http://bit.ly/2erjTyy)

The obituary for her Aunt Marie: "Marie DiNatale, 66, of Atco, N.J., predeceased by her loving parents James (Jimmy the Brute) and Antoinette DiNatale, died on Monday, May 20 [2002]. (http://bit.ly/2ehJ5nP)

So we can conclude the father of her mother and two aunts that lived with her, was Jimmy “The Brute” DiNatale”.

This is from page 82 of a 1992 NJ Report on Organized Crime detailing information linking Jimmy as an accessory in the murder of Vincent Falcone (http://www.state.nj.us/sci/pdf...)

“Scarfo also asked for help from bar owners besides Andrew Cornaglia. Scarfo got James “Jimmy the Brute” DiNatale,...a couple of DiNatale’s employees [and another individual] to provide false alibis for them. DiNatale was an associate of the Family and [the other individual] was a good friend of his. DiNatale owned a couple of bars and [his friend] owned one bar in the Atlantic County area....

A few hours before they killed Falcone, Scarfo, Leonetti and Merlino ate lunch at the Country Squire Diner, which was located on the Cardiff Traffic Circle in Egg Harbor Township, N.J. While there, they saw and spoke with DiNatale, [his friends and] a few of his workers....

After leaving the diner, Scarfo, Leonetti and Merlino went back to the office of Scarf, Inc., in Atlantic City and prepared to murder Falcone. Shortly after they were released on bail, Scarfo and Leonetti went to see DiNatale at his construction supply company in Egg Harbor Township. Merlino may have gone with them also. They asked DiNatale to lie about the time that he actually saw them at the Country Squire Diner in order to give them an alibi for the time frame of the Falcone murder. They also asked DiNatale to arrange for [his friend] and the workers who saw them at the diner to do the same. DiNatale agreed. DiNatale, at least one of his workers and [his friend] then provided a defense team investigator with statements that they saw Scarfo, Leonetti and Merlino at the diner later in the afternoon than they actually did. Scarfo, Leonetti and Merlino then had an alibi for part of the time that they were involved in committing the murder. DiNatale and [his friend] also testified at the trial and lied about the time that they saw them at the diner. Everyone provided the false statements and testimony willingly when they were asked. A private investigator, who was hired by Bobby Simone, took the false statements at the Silly Gator Bar in Hammonton, N.J. The bar was owned by [DiNatale’s friend]. Scarfo, Leonetti and Merlino were present when the statements were given. Simone represented Merlino and Harold Garber represented Scarfo in the Falcone homicide trial. Both attorneys were associates of the Family. Neither the attorneys nor the private investigator knew that Scarfo, Leonetti and Merlino had arranged for DiNatale, [his friend] and the others to lie in their statements and when testifying.”

There is plenty of additional information online about her grandfather, here is one example:
