About Joseph Lewis

Was involved as a witness for several families seeking citizenship. Left behind a wife, ex-wife and 3 children. One was murdered in an elevator involving a "stick-up", another was killed while collecting a debt from one of his bar patrons. It has been verified by family that Joseph was a mobster in the family and that he may have even involved other members of the family.
