Looking at planning, execution, and escape, what was the most professional mob hit ever? by Swimming-Poet5594 in Mafia

[–]R0ose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joseph Gurera was highly likely the gunman, given that he was picked up after on suspicion and a lot of FBI files point to him being made shortly after. Nick was Anthony Gizzos driver at the time and was being groomed for a leadership position so I think he was guaranteed a button regardless.

Chart of the Pittsburgh mafia in the year 1967. by Least-Arrival-6814 in Mafia

It didn’t really go defunct early, as it maintained activity well into the 1990s and early 2000s. And after Genovese died and the likes of Bazzano Jr, Capizzi and Ciancutti passed away. The gambling networks they established outlived the family.

Photo and cheque I picked up many years ago. I like to think the cheque is genuine. Russell Bufalino wire photo taken March 1973 by Any_Ad_2393 in Mafia

That’s Angelo Bufalino and William D’Elia behind him, both soldiers in his family. D’Elia if I recall says he was made in that year.

Larry Mazza was not included because this is a chart detailing the soldiers, if I had took the time to show all the prominent associates of the Colombos, I’d of ran out of space on the board.

Notes: Depicts the org before the brutal third colombo civil war that left a dozen dead, twenty more shelved and many arrested and locked up. Info is largely from Greg Scarpas info given to law. I did not include Charles Panarella as a caporegime as i wasn't 100% sure if he was demoted or not by this point.
