Salvatore Trivalino?

[Bing Bang 74]

Forgive me, but I keep coming across online references to a Bufalino member named Salvatore "Vicious" Trivalino. I haven't been able to find any actual concrete evidence of his existence, and more irritating still is that he is cited on these sites as an attendant at the Apalachin meeting. Is it possible someone would share some info on him if they have it, please?

Zero mentions of ‘Trivalino’ if you use the forum search function. Most likely just a made up name which is why you can’t find concrete evidence of his existence.

Yep, made up name. Unless the name is misspelled or butchered.

So far as I know, the surname “Trivalino” as such doesn’t exist in Italy, but we know Italian surnames often got changed, sometimes radically, after arrival in the US, as well as misspelled by the press or LE. Closest that I can think of would be Travaligno or Trifolino.

One of the usual suspects on GBB once claimed that “Salvatore Trivalino” was a Bufalino member based in Auburn, NY. I have no idea if there is any basis for this, but I do note that the surname Trifolino was recorded in Auburn.

I’ve also seen this alleged “Salvatore Trivalino” included in supposed lists of the arrestees at Appalachin, but don’t know if this was from actual reporting in 1957, or if this name got erroneously inserted by someone over time.

There was no Salvatore Trivalino or Salvatore Trivilino at Apalachin. I wonder if this name came from Giacomo Vicari, but the earliest reference to this imaginary attendee comes from user BarrettM on 7/20/12 in Gangsterbb. The name that comes closest is Patsy Turrigiano. He was an alleged member of the Bufalino crime family, but BarrettM made a chart with both Turrigiano and "Trivalino," even giving details such as when Trivalino was made. Makes me wonder if Vicari and Barrett is the same person.

Vacari was of course the one who claimed that “Trivalino” was a prominent figure in Auburn, lol.

He was the father-in-law of Paulie "Stripes" DeMarco.
