  • Chiarelli was born in 1942 in Manatoriccio, Italy, but it's not clear when he came to the U.S. and under what circumstances. He was raised in New Kensington and lived in that area his entire life. He served in the Marines from 1961 to 1965 and was stationed for part of that time in Okinawa, Japan. Chiarelli later worked as a general contractor. Federal agents called him the "mob carpenter" because he worked on the homes of other mobsters, including boss Michael James Genovese and underboss Charles "Chucky" Porter. In the 1970s, he also was involved in running the Showboat Club, a troubled, mob-related Downtown night spot that was shut down in 1972. At the time, he was living in the former Hilton Hotel, Downtown, after his new split-level home in New Kensington burned to the ground in what police said was an arson. The home was valued at $35,000 and was insured for $70,000. While carpentry was his trade, Chiarelli's real job was money-maker for the mob, according to federal agents and the former Pennsylvania Crime Commission he specialized in big-ticket heists, arson, extorting drug dealers and distributing Florida cocaine in Pittsburgh on a massive scale in the 1980s.
