Tony Marconi

Tony Marconi was a huge figure in the Italian Mafia and also the former manager of the Blue Flamingo night club. The team had suspected him of many things in Cases #2, 5, and 8 but there was no evidence of his guilt. Finally, Marconi was arrested after killing Salvador Cordero in Into the Vipers' Nest (Case #11). Tony appears as a jailed convict (albeit a suspect) in All the King's Horses (Case #49).

Role in Case(s)
Tony Marconi first appeared in Corpse in a Garden where he was under suspicion of murdering Ned Dillard because Dave Simmons had told the team that the house where Dillard was found dead was his. When it was revealed that Dennis Brown (Ned's bodyguard) had been hired to kill Ned, it was suspected that he ordered the hit, but there was no substantial proof. Dave Simmons knew about his illegal businesses, and maybe worked for him.

In A Russian Case, Marconi was thought to have murdered Anton Levin. However, there was no proof that Marconi either killed Anton nor ordered the hit. He came to the case when the team found a photo showing him and Dimitri Balanchine in Anton Levin's mobile phone. The team became desperate to find something on him.

In Beautiful No More, he returns again because one of his strippers was killed. The team thought they had him this time but then they found that it was in fact the barmaid of the Blue Flamingo, Alice August.

In Into the Vipers' Nest, the team saw him was when the Vipers' gang leader Salvador Cordero was found dead on his car. Marconi tried to evade arrest by filing a restraining order against Jones, who he believes had a maniacal obsession with him, even going further by threatening to file a restraining order against the whole Police Department after Ramirez talked to Marconi. After thorough investigation, all evidence pointed on Marconi and he was finally convicted. Marconi killed Salvador because Salvador was hurting a prostitute named Ginger, believing that he had the right taking peoples' lives should harm come to women. Marconi was arrested and taken to court, where he was found guilty of Salvador's murder, and sentenced to a minimum jail term of 20 years. While Jones was satisfied for finally putting Marconi behind bars, he was disappointed because he jailed Marconi for Cordero's murder, and not for one of his other shady business deals. In the midst of Marconi's detainment, Ginger took over the Blue Flamingo.

Tony makes a post-indictment appearance in All the King's Horses, in which the police interrogate him inside his cell, but attempts to do business with the cops as a condition for giving them information leading to the arrest of the killer of a foreign head of state.
