Frankie Carbone's Real Death - Goodfellas Got It Completely Wrong

Four seconds. Eric Clapton's "Layla" playing over a refrigerated meat truck. And Henry Hill's voice: "When they found Carbone in the meat truck, he was frozen so stiff it took them two days to thaw him out for the autopsy." It is the most haunting image in Goodfellas. And almost everything about it is wrong. The character of Frankie Carbone is based on Angelo Sepe — a real Lucchese associate, a gunman in the Lufthansa heist, and one of the most loyal members of Jimmy Burke's crew. He was not killed by Burke. He was not frozen in a meat truck. He was shot three times in the head in his Brooklyn basement apartment on July eighteenth, nineteen eighty-four, while his teenage girlfriend slept in the next room. They shot her too. She was sleeping. She never woke up. The frozen meat truck? That actually happened. But it happened to a completely different man. A con artist named Richard Eaton, who laundered Lufthansa money through Florida restaurants, skimmed from the proceeds, and paid for that decision with his life. His body was found hogtied and frozen solid in a refrigerated truck. In the lining of his coat: Jimmy Burke's home phone number. That phone number helped put Burke in prison for life. Scorsese merged two men and two murders into one image. This documentary tells you both stories in full. What you will learn: Who Angelo Sepe actually was — born January fourteenth, nineteen forty-one, fourteen arrests starting at age fourteen, a man who kept pet turtles and stray rabbits and killed on command without hesitation Sepe's documented role in the Lufthansa heist — one of the armed gunmen who held employees hostage, later identified by a beaten cargo worker in a police photo lineup How Sepe survived the post-Lufthansa killing spree that eliminated at least nine others — and the single decision that finally got him killed six years later Who Joanna Lombardo was, why she died, and why her murder has never been charged The full story of Richard Eaton — the educated con artist behind the real frozen meat truck — and how his coat lining contained the evidence that convicted Jimmy Burke of murder Why Scorsese merged both deaths into one image and what that choice cost both men's real stories Key Figures: Angelo Sepe, Richard Eaton, Joanna Lombardo, Jimmy Burke, Tommy DeSimone, Parnell "Stacks" Edwards Verified Sources: Ernest Volkman and John Cummings, The Heist (Franklin Watts, nineteen eighty-six) Nicholas Pileggi, Wiseguy (Simon and Schuster, nineteen eighty-five) Wikipedia: Angelo Sepe, Lufthansa heist, Richard Eaton — all cross-referenced History.com: "How the nineteen seventy-eight Lufthansa Heist Led to a Trail of Dead Bodies" Subscribe and comment: did Scorsese make the right call merging these two deaths, or did it rob both men of their real stories? #TrueCrime #Goodfellas #FrankieCarbone #AngeloSepe #LuccheseCrimeFamily #MafiaHistory #OrganizedCrime #LufthansaHeist #MobDocumentary #JimmyBurke #TrueCrimeDocumentary #GangsterHistory #MobStories #RealGoodfellas #MafiaFiles
