"This is for Carmine." - Scsrpa before he pulled the trigger.

Isn't there another quote about "blowing his fucking nose off" or something?

Wiki says 18 associates disappeared during the 3rd Colombo war is that true or is it fake info. I’ve only found account of like 12 murders

[Pogo The Clown]

Yeah that is fake info. There were like 12 killed in total (2 were innocent bystanders if I'm not mistaken).

Oct 20, 1993 - Joseph Scopo (M) killed in what was considered the final murder in this war. Dominick LoGazzo (M) and Angelo Marrone wounded in same attack.

Did this a long time ago on gangsterbb. Another good, solid poster who has a blog (Dapper don I think his user name was) chipped in with the Frank Marasa muder. But it´s clear now that murder had nothing to do with the war.

Does anyone have a good Gambino family tree? Something that would map out the relationships between the Gambinos, Castellanos, Inzerillos, etc. It can get quite confusing trying to figure out who's who when reading about that family since there are so many Giuseppes, Tommasos, Joes and Tommys, etc. Am I also correct in believing they're connected to the Sicilian element in Montreal through Paul Castellano's wife being a Manno?

[Dave65827]

Are there any articles of Italian media reporting on the American mafia ? Kind of a niche specific interest of mine.

This tree came to mind (from Salvatore Lupo's "The Two Mafias"), though it's not going to help with the Montreal connection.

Here are a couple that cover the marriage ties between the Gambinos and Castellanos.
