Following the death of her first husband, gambler Charlie Drahmann, Cincinnati native Ann Augustine married Mike \"Trigger\" Coppola, Harlem mob gambling racketeer and Syndicate overlord. Between Miami, Florida, and Newport, Kentucky, \"Trigger\" Mike lavished cash and gifts upon Ann, along with anger-fueled beatings and abuse. A violent and bitter divorce led Ann, despite threats to her life, to agree to testify for the government against Coppola for Federal tax evasion. Escaping to Rome shortly thereafter, she took her own life in 1962.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hank Messick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948986337\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948986335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Commonwealth Book Company, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.52d","brand":"Hank Messick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050443337983,"sku":"9781948986335","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e3c7f60-d0e8-4a60-883a-0e2080dbf57d.jpg?v=1685007255","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/syndicate-wife-hank-messick-9781948986335","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
