Description
Fred Harvey Bonadonna was a turncoat Kansas City mobster who turned evidence against Willie the Rat Cammisano during a 1980 Senate subcommittee investigation into organized crime. Bonadonna, the son of KC mob soldier David Bonadonna, was involved in the River Quay revitalization project. A refurbishing designed to attract young people to the area, shops, restaurants and nightclubs were built during this venture. The mob, like Cammisano and others, used the Bonadonnas' success to obtain liquor licenses and open topless bars.
