#Al Capone

Aug. 24, 1902, to Oct. 15, 1976.

  Gambino was born in Palermo, Sicily. He settled in New York in 1921 - according to some sources the precise date was Dec. 23 - and began an association with the Castellano clan, a branch of the D'Aquila Mafia group. During his bootlegging years, he was regarded as a weak personality, a follower. But weakness might have been just a facade. Gambino seems to have used assassination to advance himself in the ranks of the Mafia and to advance his liberal views of the crime organization. He became prominent in the Mangano Family (which had been led by D'Aquila, Al Mineo and then Frank Scalise in the years leading up to 1931 underworld reorganization) after Vincent Mangano's disappearance in 1951. He was named underboss to Albert Anastasia in 1956. Anastasia was killed the next year, and Gambino took over family leadership.

  Gambino is believed to have been at least partly responsible for inciting revolts within the conservative Mafia clans of Profaci (later known as Colombo) and Bonanno. He was a one-time supporter and later opponent of both Joe Colombo and Joe Gallo, big names in the former Profaci Family. Colombo's assassination in 1971 was probably masterminded by Gambino. Gallo's death a year later also looks to have been his work.

  Gambino died of a heart attack Oct. 15, 1976. His underboss Aniello Dellacroce had much support to take over the family but agreed instead to serve under Paul Castellano, who was a relative and an apprentice of Gambino.

Colosimo was a vice racketeer in Chicago just after the turn of the 20th Century. His primary illicit business enterprises appear to have been gambling rackets and the management of a string of social clubs and brothels. Without the benefit of a gang of his own, Colosimo was repeatedly victimized by Black Hand extortion and sent to New York for aid. He called for his relative Johnny Torrio, who partnered in a Brooklyn-Manhattan gang leadership with Frankie Yale, to move west. Torrio settled in Chicago around 1909 and immediately put an end to Colosimo's Black Hand troubles. In 1919, Five Points Gang enforcer Al Capone, who was wanted on murder charges in New York, decided to follow in Torrio's footsteps and joined Colosimo's Chicago organization. With the arrival of Prohibition, Torrio and Capone wished to expand their illicit enterprises into bootlegging. Colosimo reportedly refused, possibly because he foresaw conflicts erupting with other criminal organizations in the city.At the time, the operation of home breweries in Chicago's Sicilian-Italian communities and liquor smuggling operations were being coordinated by rival gangs. While Colosimo was reportedly Sicilian by birth (coming to America in 1872 when just one year old, or, according to other sources in 1881 when nine), he generally functioned outside of the Mafia establishment (one reason he was targeted by Black Handers. Colosimo was assassinated May 11, 1920. It is widely believed the hit was performed by Uale at the request of Torrio and/or Capone. However, the Colosimo-Torrio-Capone group was not a Mafia organization, and, in fact, was presenting growing problems for the true Mafiosi in town - the Gennas and later the Aiellos. The Gennas might have been partly responsible for Colosimo's death. Colosimo also went through an ugly divorce just before his death, and his former brother-in-law was apparently suspected by police. Whoever the responsible parties were, Torrio and Capone were the main beneficiaries. They took over Colosimo's businesses and formed a full-fledged gang.
