Authorities have named a suspect in the murder of professional gambler Howard Ferrini, the Berkley man who was discovered dead at Logan Airport nearly 30 years ago,
The Bristol District Attorney’s office and the Massachusetts State Police said they learned that Kevin Hanrahan, a mafia enforcer who worked for the Patriarch crime family in Providence, was involved in Ferrini’s killing in 1991. Hanrahan, who also associated with criminals Frank “Cadillac” Salemme and Gordon O’Brien of Taunton, was shot to death in 1992.
The case was reopened last year as part of a new effort to revisit unsolved murders, and Hanrahan was identified thanks to an updated fingerprint database from the FBI.

The Taunton Daily Gazette
TAUNTON On the afternoon of Aug. 14, 1991, 53-year-old professional gambler Howard Ferrini was spending his time the way he often did during the summer hanging out with his friends at the Raynham dog track.
Around 4 p.m., Ferrini told them he was leaving and would be back in a few hours, as he was excited about participating in a sweepstakes that was planned for later that evening.
It was the last time Ferrini s friends would ever see him.
Now, nearly 30 years later, Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn s office says it has at least partially cracked the cold case of Ferrini’s murder.
