“His visiting list is restricted to family members and ‘one special friend.”

Almond, Providence, R.I., and Strike Force Chief REDACTED Boston, MASS., plan to contact Departmental authorities re possibility of giving Rhode Island Parole Board access to material from microphone coverage of Patriarca from 1962 to 1965 to emphasize his importance in the organized crime field…”
