Most of his stories revolve around the Grand Avenue guys; Lombardo, Spilotro, Schweihs. I haven't read it but I heard it's worth reading. Probably not recommended if you are just casual follower of the Outfit, though.

I'm not, nor have ever been a member of the Real Deal mafia site.

Is it worthwhile to do so?
I peruse this and GBB. Would members here recommend joining Real Deal or any other site for addition info/chat/interest etc?

Appreciate all feedback.
Thanks in advance.

You're not missing anything. RD is pretty much dead at this point with only a few bullshiters and trolls occasionally posting.

Has there ever been a made guy killed by an OC group?

I know the whole point of being made is that you are untouchable to other criminals. I read however about a Lucchese soldier that was killed by Frank Lucas back when he was running Harlem, I was wondering if you knew of any other made guys that have been ever killed by other crime syndicates or gangs?

NE, I merged your post/question with this thread mainly because I feel it belongs here.

Which Lucchese soldier are you talking about? If you are referring to Carmine Pugliese, he wasn´t made.

You asked this same question over on GBB a year ago, with same given answer.
There you have it, never printed before.

I can't access GBB anymore so I can't see the thread I made over there and it was a long time ago so I don't remember what answers were given. I thought this new forum might have some additional information anyway.

I surprise myself sometimes. :)

I wish I could help you with your question. But I can´t. I don´t remember any NY made guy ever being proven killed by outsiders (gangs or other OC groups). But there may have been cases outside of NY, which is not my forte.

Cleveland UnderBoss Leo Lips Moceri was killed by Danny Greene and his crew during their war with the Cleveland family.


I'm sure there were several Chicago members who were killed during the various wars with the Northside gang and the others crews during Prohibition.

Thanks for the responses HairyKnuckles and Pogo.

I don't know much about Cleveland so I guess I got some reading to do :)

Whats the mob's attitude towards killing and beating up women? Even the toughest guys I've ever met in my life agree that hitting a woman is one of the scummiest things a man can do but yet you often read about some wiseguys being violent towards women and occasionally killing them
