In this conversation from The Sopranos S03E07, what does Junior's answer mean?

Tony: And let me ask you something about this JFK worship of yours, what about Hoffa and the teamsters?

Junior: That was the brother.

Tony: Oh.



Best Answer

He was talking about JFK's brother Robert who, as Attorney General, went on a crusade against the mob. RFK was instrumental in getting Hoffa put away on a jury tampering charge. Many believe this activity led to JFK's assassination by a paid mafia operative, though no reliable evidence supports this.
