The 8 Gambinos Galante Killed

[Extortion]

Does anybody know the names and positions of the 6-8 or so people Galante killed to cement his power over the drug trade when he came back out?

Article and various other sources:

“He roamed the streets of Little Italy like an aristocrat and allegedly had eight Gambino family members murdered to cement his power in the drug trade.“

I've read this claim before too but never seen any specific names.

I actually think it might have just been part of the rumor mill. I can't say for sure exactly of course. During my research for these Cherry Hill articles, there was a pizza/cheese war happening in that area between Bonnano and Gambino families. One guy even said that if you buy the wrong cheese your place is firebombed and if you buy from the wrong family, your place is firebombed.

It if were true to some degree the victims will likely be Gambino associates / local drug pushers.

Pretty sure there was something out there saying he killed some genovese as well also linked to tommy notos death.

If he did that too it comes close to another Castellammarese war.

Jimmy Breslin credits Galante with the Flying Consalvo brother murders, as to consolidate the 'Mexican Brown' network, though this of course hasnt been proven.

Sure gigante was linked to the flying brothers as well.
