The high-profile trial of a New England mafia boss charged with killing a nightclub owner in 1993 is set to get underway in Boston.
Opening statements are scheduled for Wednesday in the trial of ex-mafia boss Francis “Cadillac Frank” Salemme and co-defendant Paul Weadick, who are accused of killing federal witness Steven DiSarro to prevent him from cooperating with authorities.
DiSarro’s remains were found in March 2016 behind a mill in Providence, Rhode Island. The men have denied participating in DiSarro’s killing.
Salemme led the New England family of La Cosa Nostra in the early 1990s and entered witness protection in 1999.
Salemme was indicted in 2004 on charges that he gave false information about authorities about who might be responsible for DiSarro’s death and pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice.
