Major Coxson, who was murdered on June 8, 1973 along with his wife and children in a gangland execution in Muhammad Ali's house on Barbara Drive in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, was simultaneously "a mayoral candidate, flamboyant entrepreneur, media darling, civil rights activist, inner city power broker, fraudster, drug financier, and intermediary between Italian-American and African-American gangsters" according to (Penn State Professor Sean Patrick) Griffin who uses primary law enforcement records and crime reporting to make the case.
