This is the story of a Mayor who would be King, The Mob that would demand its share of the spoils, and a man caught in the middle. A story so unique, so endemic to the Providence, so uniquely Rhode Island, that it casts a spell even to this day.DIVINE PROVIDENCE: THE MAYOR, THE MOB, AND THE MAN IN THE MIDDLE. BY JOE BROADMEADOWIn Rhode Island during the 1970s and 80s, and in particular in certain cities like Providence and a few others, the cost of business faced certain taxes.
