Which actor's father was a hitman convicted of assassinating a federal judge?
Woody Harrelson
Charles Harrelson was a hitman and organized crime figure, who in 1979 gunned down U.S. District Judge John H. Wood in the driveway of his home. Charles Harrelson, the father of actor Woody Harrelson, was convicted of the murder and sentenced to two life terms in prison. He had already served five years for the 1968 murder-for-hire killing of Sam Degelia. Harrelson also claimed that he assasinated President John F. Kennedy in 1963. He later denied his role in the shooting of the President, for which no connection was ever found.
