Wiseguys Clipped by Civilians

Post by Manhattan_ »

Other then Frank Cali a few others off the top of my head : Anthony (Shorty) Mascuzzio shot and killed by David Fisher on 6/18/88. Fisher was the owner of the Bedrox Disco at 316 w49 street NYC. Guido (Dolls) DeCurtis shot killed 3/16/77 after leaving craps game at 27 street and Lexington ave. Said to have been killed by a craps player (Albanian) who he slapped earlier in the evening. Joe Colombo 6/28/71 shot at the Unity Day Rally in front of 50,000 plus people by Jerome Johnson who was shot and killed on the spot by a unknown person.

Great topic!

I’d say Joe Colombo is different/doesn’t count as that was a mob hit still.

The others are interesting, it’s ‘funny’ in a warped sense to see a wiseguy hit someone then get killed for it lol

Don't know if it counts because I believe the guy was a Greek loanshark associated with the Detroit mob. Ernest
Kanakis killed three Detroit mafia members who tried to garrote him in 1976.

still wonder what this beef was about. the lastorinos and argentinas are all from Canarsie afaik, but I'm not sure if Frank was ever in the same crew with the Argentina Bros. and doubt this was "street related." Frank's son dying in a public, arguably embarassing manner, is befitting to the tremendous amount of karma he is due

Johnny Stompanato? The guy killed by Lana Turner's daughter? He was one of Mickey Cohen's men.

There were quite a few, especially if we count guys who were not in the mafia or associates, but dangerous street guys.

It's not a big deal, but are you sure about that? I'm literally looking at the July 1976 Free Press article where Kanakis was charged with their murders and they have Frank Randazzo as 62, Joseph Seragusa as 66 and Nick Ditta as 69.
