I agree and that would be my third choice :mrgreen:

I chose the Siegel and Rizzuto hits because of the preciseness of the bullets but the Giancana hit shows us the whole "Godfather style" of elimination of one high profile target

My favorites are the Giancana hit, while he was supposedly under 24 hour surveillance. My other is the Galante hit, with the cigar still in his mouth.

My vote for the best hit in LCN was Gotti having Castellano & Bilotti killed. For Gotti, it was kill or be killed and he made it happen. What he did really took balls and some very excellent planning including getting other people to go along with the hit.

For those who missed it that was Bugs Moran when asked about the massacre
I already knew that :mrgreen:

All kidding aside, my personal opinion is that Moran was overstated gangster or should I say, a victim of the media same as Nitto.
interesting i was under impression he was the smartest of the three bosses. probably was media I heard that from.

what happened to the North side irishman after st alentine mass?
I dont remember really since i have to refresh my memory but i think he went small time and later went down for some robbery or something.
Yeah, he just became a petty armed robber and eventually died in jail for it.

To whoever called him the north side Irishman: The man was actually French (half French and half Quebecois), by the way, not Irish. His real name was Adelard Cunin; "George Moran" was an alias.The North Siders weren't really an Irish mob. For example, Morton, Weiss, Alterie, Moran, and Drucci weren't Irish. None of the Massacre victims were Irish-American as far as I know, except for maybe John May.

They just get labeled an "Irish mob" because of O'Banion and because people like the drama of an "Irish vs. Italian" war. But it's BS.

As for Nitto, during the Capone days he mightve been the number two guy, which i still have some doubts about that but i think im sure that he was a very powerful territorial boss on the West Side who never managed to get away from the spotlight since he was indicted and sentenced together with his infamous boss

Villain convinced me that Ricca was the succeessor to Capone with all his information that he has found. Read his articles about the Outfit in is it the Black Hand forum articles section .
I thought he was just sayin that he really wasnt the head. but I'll read the articles

Think the Ricci hit deserves some attention. Apart from having indication that fiumara ordered it do we know or have any suspicion about who pulled the trigger or where it happened? Not too common for modern murders.

Villain wrote: ↑Wed Jun 13, 2018 12:34 am I wont say that he didnt do it, but the hit was way too professional for a guy like Moran to execute it, while during Prohibition the Outfit already showed some good logistics in eliminating their targets... just my two cents
So you think the Outfit probably whacked Nugent too? The rumor I've always read was that he vanished in Florida and probably ended up as alligator chow in some swamp.
Yeah thats Nugents story, while Carey, after hearing the news, fled to NY and allegedly shot his wife and turned the gun on himself, but still there were numerous suspicious evidences regarding the whole case
