High Ranking Chicago Mob Member Pleads Guilty to Tax Evasion

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

A reputed high-level Chicago mobster complaining of chronic migraines got another reason for a headache Tuesday as he pleaded guilty to federal tax evasion, which could send him to prison for one year to 18 months.

Rudolph C. "Rudy" Fratto, 65, of Darien, who comes from a family of alleged mobsters, admitted to failing to pay more than $140,000 in federal taxes on more than $800,000 in income from 2001 to 2007, according to his plea agreement in a case investigated by the Internal Revenue Service.

There's more:

Fratto allegedly once met with one of Chicago's most crooked cops, former chief of detectives William Hanhardt, about a proposed hit, according to testimony in Hanhardt's sentencing hearing in 2002 for running a jewel theft ring. The hit never happened.
