Members of the administration killed by rival group after prohibition

Post by Stroccos »

I am strictly speaking about outside factions or groups . So Galante and castelano being whacked by there own families won't count
The only one I can come up with is


Leo moceri underboss Cleveland , killed by Greene/nardi faction
"if he's such A sports wizard , whys he tending bar ?" Nicky Scarfo

There was the 1977 murder of Eli Zeccardi, underboss of the Genovese. Funzi Tieri blamed this on the Irish gangster Mickey Spillane, who was the boss in Hell's Kitchen before Jimmy Coonan and the Westies took over. But I read it's generally thought that Tieri himself ordered Zeccardi killed, and blamed Spillane to avoid problems, and was believed because Spillane had a "habit" already to kidnap mafiosi for ransom, although nobody got killed. By the way, anyone knows who exactly from the Cosa Nostra did Spillane kidnap? Even if Zeccardi's death most likely was attributed to him by Tieri who was himself responsible, but which kidnappings (even non-fatal) did he really order against the Cosa Nostra?

Albert Anastasia. Although he was killed by members of his own family it was really ordered by Tommy Lucchese and Vito Genovese.

Wasn't Vincent Rotondo's murder a little unclear as to who did it or why? I forget which crappy book and made for TV movie had it as Gambino revenge against the Genoveses for Decicco somehow. Which was just idiotic. But was it ever determined who it actually was?

And do we actually know who killed William Grasso in 1989? I mean who literally committed it? Not sure if that was farmed out.

I don't have the links to the articles right now, but I am sure somebody named Gaetano Milano was convicted as the triggerman and 2 others as accomplices. Nobody was convicted for giving the order, but I think it was alleged it was the Russo-Carrozza group (I think these were the last names). Wasn't Russo also the triggerman who killed Joe Barboza in the 70s?

Will check more articles later, but here are 2 on the subject, among the first ones coming up after I typed "Gaetano Milano" "Grasso" and "Carrozza" on google:
