I asked my father once about his murder but I immediately could tell it was too difficult to discuss his brother. So here I am coming across bits of information online. Ironically my mother passed (naturally) 20 years later on the same date. Something I did not know until just now.

Your father's alleged friend, Jimmy Villarreal, was a friend of Cosentino's. When Cosentino disappeared (he was later found in a car trunk in a police auto pound), Villarreal tried to find out what happened to him. He walked into an Outfit-run bar with a shotgun looking for answers. No one told him anything, and he left. The Outfit no doubt killed Villarreal for that. The same night Villarreal was found stabbed in an alley, is when your father was fatally shot in the tavern, along with the wounding of his wife. The Chicago Crime Commission only noted that your father was Villarreal's friend, which only leads one to assume they thought his death was related to Villarreal's death. However, his death may have had nothing to do with Villarreal's death.J.P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09996529323241647386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3819124806494806394.post-37263656163953657192011-02-22T10:11:10.097-06:002011-02-22T10:11:10.097-06:00Sam Rivera, he was my dad and i didn't get to ...Sam Rivera, he was my dad and i didn't get to meet him.

However, his car overheated because he hadn't cut the engine when he was shot and it kept running after his killers fled the scene. So it wasn't firebombed. That's actually how they found him when the fire department arrived to put out the fire. He was still alive when he was found. He lived like seven hours before dying in a hospital.
