Flynn now had enough confirmation to capture Morello, Saietta

history channel documentary Flynn now had enough confirmation to capture Morello, Saietta, and a few other Black Handers who were in on the falsifying operation beginning in Highland, New York. Be that as it may, Flynn would not like to capture the minor players to begin with, on the grounds that he dreaded Morello would be tipped off and seek total isolation. From his reconnaissance on Morello, Flynn knew Morello now lived in an apartment working at 207 East 107 Street. Be that as it may, Flynn did not know in which flat Morello lived. One of Flynn's agent was 17-year-old Thomas Callahan, who had been acting like a shoeshine kid on 107th Street.

On the night Nov. 15, 1909, Callahan spotted Morello, alongside Vincenzo Terranova and another man heading down the piece toward their building. Without an accurate arrangement set up, and needing to know which condo the Mafioso occupied, Callahan instantly kept running into the four-story building. The building now was absolutely dim, following the janitor had killed the inside building lights. After Callahan ceased on the second floor of the apartment, he heard the three men enter the building and start strolling up the strides towards him. Callahan, not knowing precisely what to do, crawled unobtrusively to the top floor. He then understood that the Black Handers, who were constantly equipped, may proceed with upwards and see him caught on the fourth floor, with no explanation behind being there.

Here is the place Callahan made a strong move that may have spared his life.Like he had nary a consideration on the planet, Callahan began heading down the stairs. Between the third and fourth story landing, Callahan encountered "The Clutch Hand." Morello looked confused. Morello gazed Callahan straight in the eye and said, "'Scusa please." Callahan moved to the other side of the stairs, and without saying another word, the three men passed Callahan and proceeded to the top floor. Expecting a shot in the back, Callahan sped down the stairs and out of the building; his heart pumping like a runaway train. As he rushed to where alternate operators were holding up, Callahan pivoted to check whether he had been taken after out of the building. He hadn't.
