It is interesting to note that there were several Catalanos involved in the Outfit, starting from the early 20th century....Dave65827 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 25, 2021 8:32 am Anthony Catalano the Chicago outfit connected drug dealer disappeared 12 years ago today https://www.chicagonow.com/interesting- ... /03/17419/

Some interesting info regarding Tony DeRosa (first under Daddono and later under Aiuppa or Nicoletti) and infamous NY mobster Greg Scarpa....

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Nice find Villain. I personally can’t think of another instance where Chicago was working with the Colombos like that, so that’s a great example to document.

Thanks bud and same thoughts here....although i think that back in the days or previously Accardo and Profaci possibly had some mutual interests in AZ...PolackTony wrote: ↑Fri Mar 26, 2021 7:43 am Nice find Villain.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
In addition to the Colombo-Chicago connections, it is interesting to note that when Accardo gave his throne to Giancana, he told his successor that Profaci was one of the bosses that he could count on. Accardo also named Philly, Buffalo, the Genoveses and the Bonannos as Chicago's allies, but later the situation changed since Giancana didnt like Bonanno at all and instead he created close alliances with the Lukes and Gambinos.

That is an excellent find. Ciro Gargano was the younger brother of Mike Gargano, who worked for Mad Sam and was indicted for murder with a police officer named Thomas Durso. Their relatives own a lot of real estate near the northside of Chicago.

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Thanks for confirming that. I was wondering if there was a connection with this Gargano.SolarSolano wrote: ↑Fri Mar 26, 2021 12:05 pm That is an excellent find.

During the mid 60s both Durso and Gargano were sent to 100 years in prison but several years later they were paroled

Re: General Chicago Outfit Info Dumping Ground
Yep and then his daughter married Frankie Caruso. If there’s any action left for the Chinatown crew it’s likely heavily based on these longstanding networks of trust, families that have known each other and intermarried now for generations.SolarSolano wrote: ↑Sun Mar 28, 2021 9:50 am Szaflarski is married to one of Shorty LaMantia's daughters.
