The remains of a decomposed human body stuffed inside a corroded metal barrel and discovered stuck in Lake Mead’s mud has all the makings of a gangland hit
Our research has found three possible victims who may be the body in the barrel, each with links to the mob, who disappeared at that time and their bodies were never found
If that theory holds, it may also lead us to a likely killer — one of the most notorious enforcers in mob history
The thread that strings these men together is that they were all linked to the most powerful Las Vegas mob operation of that time
