In this exclusive, first-ever public appearance, former Mafia soldier Nove Tocco will tell the inside story of the rise and fall of the Detroit Mafia. For Nove, it was a family affair. Longtime boss Jack Tocco was his cousin. Underboss Anthony Zerilli was his uncle. While in college, Nove entered the family business, engaging in bookmaking, extortion, and other crimes.

After he was sentenced to 18 years in prison, he decided to become a government witness and testify against his cousin, marking the first time a Detroit Mafia member publicly turned on the crime family. Detroit crime historian Scott Burnstein will provide context and insights into Tocco’s story.

Free for Museum Members or with Museum admission.
