On this day in 1965 the Outfit’s political fixer Murray Humphreys suffered a fatal heart attack. A laceration was found on the back of his head, below his right ear. Some believe that Humphreys could have been stuck with an empty hypodermic needle and had a shot of air sent to his heart, causing his heart attack.

Just prior to the heart attack, he’d had a visit at his apartment from some FBI agents where he’d pulled a gun on them.
