September18,1988 - Pasquale Rocco Libri,son of Domenico capobastone of Libri ndrine that controlled the Cannavò quartier of Reggio Calabria was killed in prison by sniper from a distance of over 150 meters.The sniper allegedly used a shotgun manufactured in Great Britain, the 7.62 caliber Parker Hale LTD which, having overlapping binoculars, can be used with little margin for error even from long distances.
Here is how the execution was reconstructed. Pasquale Rocco Libri, always cautious, rarely came out of his cell, but on Sunday morning he had to take part in a football match on the prison court with other inmates. The killer, who must have been aware of the fact, had set up early on the terrace on the fifth floor of a building still under construction about 150 meters from the prison courtyard.
As soon as he went outside, the young Libri did not even have time to look around: he fell to the ground. A single, sharp blow: Libri was hit in the face, next to the nostril, and the bullet, one of those that explode on impact with the target, escaped from the nape of the neck.

His eyes had nearly been gouged out and his tongue almost cut off.Massachusetts-based mafia hitman Fotios "Freddy" Geas is the primary suspect in orchestrating the killing of Bulger.

Dwalin is right.Torretta died of kidney failure at Asinara island prison because get 27 years in 1968 for the Cianciulli massacre. He was banished from Sicily.
My bad, thank you furio. I think I confused (go find out why) with Vincenzo Puccio who was beaten to death by Antonino and Giuseppe Marchese, on the orders of Toto Riina in 1989.
No problem motorfab,look to my link there are listed the Puccio murder and other murders in prison.

Yes,after Genovese gave him the kiss of death he think that the inmate was Joseph DiPalermo a lucchese made man and killed him. The risk of death penalty was the reason that lead to Valachi flipping. If Genovese would let in pace Valachi,he would do his 15 years keeping the mouth shout.

I have heard that Matty Madonna killed someone in prison, does anyone know more about this? I also heard on a Larry Lawton podcast that Nicky Scarfo stabbed someone in prison. Would love to hear more about that if anyone knows, also any other incidents of mob guys killing or attempting to kill another inmate.
