Goodfellas Never Showed Where Janice Vanished After Henry Flipped

Описание: She was there one scene. Gone the next. No explanation. No goodbye. Just silence.

Janice Rossi was Henry Hill's longtime mistress—the blonde in Apartment 2R who lived the Friday night life while Karen Hill waited at home with the kids. She visited Henry in jail. She knew his secrets. She knew the names, the operations, the faces of killers. And then, right when Henry Hill was arrested in April 1980 on drug trafficking charges, Janice Rossi vanished completely.

Goodfellas never explained what happened to her. The movie just moves on. But the real story is far more disturbing.

In this investigation, we examine four chilling theories:

🔴 THEORY 1: She Ran – Janice saw the walls closing in and got out while she could, disappearing with cash and starting a new life far from the mob

🔴 THEORY 2: Karen's Revenge – Henry's wife, pushed to the edge by jealousy and rage, took matters into her own hands and made Janice disappear

🔴 THEORY 3: Mob Cleanup – Jimmy Burke and Paulie Vario eliminated Janice as a loose end, just like they killed eight others after the Lufthansa heist

🔴 THEORY 4: Sandy's Ambition – Janice's own friend betrayed her to take her place in Henry Hill's life

What we know for sure: By May 1980, Janice was gone. No body. No forwarding address. No death certificate. Henry Hill testified about fifty mob crimes but never once publicly explained what happened to his girlfriend. The silence speaks volumes.

THE TIMELINE: 📍 1976-1980: Janice Rossi is Henry Hill's mistress, living in an apartment he pays for 📍 1974: Karen Hill confronts Janice, screaming through her intercom 📍 December 1978: Lufthansa heist—Jimmy Burke begins systematic murders 📍 April 11, 1980: Henry and Karen Hill arrested on drug trafficking charges 📍 April-May 1980: Janice Rossi disappears without explanation 📍 May 1980: Henry enters witness protection, testifies against the mob 📍 1990: Goodfellas is released—Janice's disappearance becomes a lasting mystery

This is the story Martin Scorsese told by NOT telling it. The invisible victims of the mob. The women who loved dangerous men and paid with their lives—or their identities. Forty-five years later, the mystery of Janice Rossi remains unsolved.
