The McClellan Report

The McClellan Report

Between 1963 and 1965, chaired by Democratic Senator John McClellan, the Senate Federal Government of the United States of America established the Senatorial Subcommittee, whose investigations constituted an important turning point in the US government's fight against organized crime. The first hearing was held on September 27, 1963, at the United States Senate, around 10:00 am. The commission was desired by Robert Kennedy. He initially served as consultant to the McClellan Commission, and then as Attorney General. Robert Kennedy, John's younger brother, considered the Mafia an organization that contaminated all the economic and political nodes of the United States.
