Anthony (Tony) Veranis

 

DOB 6-15-38. Ex-con, ex-boxer, owed money to loansharks. A month after his release from prison, in April 1966, Johnny Martorano gave him a savage beating and then shot him in the head. His body was dumped in the Blue Hills off Route 128. Martorano left behind $2.83 on the corpse. He had “Tony” tattooed on the fingers of one hand, and “Luck” on the other, not that he had much – luck, that is. Read a sports column from the Globe that ran April 27, 1966, and a news story that same day from the Record.
