  • Roger Wheeler Detective Mike Huff Tells the Riveting Story of Why the Boston Mafia Murdered This Tulsa Businessman
    Roger Wheeler Detective Mike Huff tells the riveting story of why the Boston Mafia murdered this Tulsa businessman. Chapter 1 — 1:20 Introduction Announcer: Businessman Roger Wheeler, the former Chairman of Telex Corporation and former owner of World Jai Alai, was murdered May 27, 1981, at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma, while sitting in his car. At age 55, he was leaving the golf course after his weekly game of golf and was murdered for uncovering an embezzlement scheme that was going on at his business, World Jai Alai. Linked to the murder were H. Paul Rico, John Callahan, Whitey Bulger, Steve Flemmi, and Johnny Martarano. The first Tulsa police detective to arrive at the scene of the crime was Homicide Detective Mike Huff. Immediate suspicions led to speculation that the murder was a mob hit, but when at Huff’s request, the Tulsa FBI asked the Boston FBI office for help, they received a terse reply that Boston had ruled out a Boston mafia connection. Thus began years of a relentless pursuit by Mike Huff, with resources provided by the Tulsa Police Department and other organizations in Boston and federal agencies to identify those connected to the murder of Roger Wheeler. Listen to Mike Huff talk about the murder from the day it happened to the conviction of Whitey Bulger on the Oklahoma oral history website, VoicesofOklahoma.com. Chapter 2 — 8:50 Homicide John Erling: My name is John Erling and today’s date is June 13, 2013. So, Mike, state your full name, your date of birth and your present age, please.

Why this Historic Site Matters 3 II. How can you better manage your artifacts and furniture? 12 III. How can you preserve your papers and photographs? 15 IV. What is the best way to digitize your collections? 28 V. How can the furnishings and artifacts be best displayed? 36 VI. Are there preservation needs for the house and its grounds? 43 VII. What is the potential of heritage tourism and marketing? 48 VIII. What are recommended next steps? 51 IX. Appendices and Sources 54 3 I. Why this Historic Site Matters The Sheriff Buford Pusser House and Museum memorializes and interprets the story and contributions of Buford H. Pusser (1937-1974), a legendary late twentieth century McNairy County sheriff, whose life and career impacted not only his community, but also his state and his nation through the long popularity of the Walking Tall movies and television program. This humble one-story brick home and its furnishings reflect the lifestyle of the majority of Tennesseans, Southerners, and Americans during the turbulent decades of the 1960s and 1970s. What sets this place beyond the average is the story of Pusser, and the courageous steps he took to make his county and his state a better place to live.
