They had no lavish corporate suites, no direct authority over other senior Hughes employees, practically no business experience. They did, however, have two striking advantages: they were, with a single exception, adherents to Mormonism, a religion that embodies Howard Hughes' aversion to drinking and smoking; and they had direct, unlimited access to the king himself. They also never talked; one reporter described them as "men without mouths."
They were Hughes' so-called Mormon Mafia, the six gentlemen in waiting who were recruited by Summa Corp. Vizier Bill Gay, himself a Mormon... in the days preceeding Howard Hughes death the Mormon 6 administered via injection Howard Hughes addiction to pain drugs...rendering Howard Hughes incapable of making decisions...they then proceeded to takeover the Summa Corporation.
This smacks of the Mitt Romney BAIN Corporation and how they do Hostile Takeovers of businesses they invest in.
