Among those who refused one-on-one interviews were Hisayuki Machii (due to poor health) and Joseph Nicola. Yae Koizumi, Zappetti’s second and fourth wife, participated in some of the taped discussions I had with her husband, but declined to be interviewed one-on-one. I interviewed three organized crime figures in Tokyo, one member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and one individual associated with the Los Angeles Police Department, all of whom wished to remain anonymous.

Ray Dunston, Mike Sullivan, Miyoko, Tani and Zack are pseudonyms for people who did not want to be interviewed or identified. Also interviewed were Jack Howard, Rick Jason, Raisuke Miyawaki and Dan Sawyer.
