"The murder of Joseph Gatto captivated Los Angeles. Many veteran journalists still wonder how and why it happened. The details of this horrible crime and those affected by it continue to fascinate." –Robert Kovacik, Anchor and Reporter, NBC Los Angeles
Mike Gatto was an up-and-coming young lawmaker when his father was brutally murdered.
The act sucked him into the world of noir: wild theories, intransigent detectives, and unimaginable violence.
This true crime story reads like a thriller, offering insight into the world of politics and the seedy underbelly of crime investigation in modern Los Angeles.
Gatto shares his experiences with incredible candor and raw emotion, detailing every clue, and how he came to learn every tragic detail of his father's murder. With the case still unsolved, see if you can piece together the clues to solve the mystery.
You can contact Mike at mike@mikegatto.com with any serious theories. Mention 1001 Heroes Podcast in emails so he knows it is referred.
