- Notes
- The last sighting of Jimmy was at his home by family members. He told them he was headed out to an appointment to collect money from someone he knew. The unknown individual had supposedly been involved in a shooting and hired Jimmy to take the fall for him. Jimmy agreed to go to prison for the crime in exchange for $10,000 and remained in prison until his release on February 20, 1954. He disappeared after leaving for the meeting - it is not known where he was going or who he was meeting. In the aftermath, some suggested that Jimmy was seen at a bar in what is today "Chinatown" when he was drugged, shot, and later buried somewhere in New Hampshire or Stoughton.
