Charles “Lucky” Luciano, born Salvatore Lucania (November 24, 1897 – January 26, 1962), was a Sicilian-born American mobster. Luciano is considered the father of modern organized crime in the United States for splitting New York City into five different Mafia crime families and the establishment of the first Commission. He was the first official boss of the modern Genovese crime family. He was, along with his associate Meyer Lansky, instrumental in the development of the National Crime Syndicate in the United States. Meyer Lansky (born Meier Suchowlański) (July 4, 1902 – January 15, 1983), was known as the “Mob’s Accountant”, he was a major organized crime figure who, along with his associate Charles “Lucky” Luciano, was instrumental in the development of the “National Crime Syndicate” in the United States. Lansky developed a gambling empire which stretched across the world. He was said to own points (percentages) in casinos in Las Vegas, Cuba, The Bahamas and London. Although a member of the Jewish Mob, Lansky undoubtedly had strong influence with the Italian Mafia and played a large role in the consolidation of the criminal underworld (although the full extent of this role has been the subject of some debate, as he himself denied many of the accusations against him). Despite all the reports, Lansky was never found guilty of anything more serious than illegal gambling. Greek Mob Syndicate Across America The American cities with large Greek communities have traditionally also have been home to ethnic Greek criminal organizations, (aka...”Godfather’s of the Night”), well-known ones being the Velentzas crime family in New York City; in Boston James Chalmas (loanshark), Louis Venios (strip club owner), William “Skinny” Kazonis and Arthure C. “Tash” Bratsos (loanshark); as well as the Philadelphia Greek Mob originally formed in southern Greece by Steve Kondonyanis. Cypriot crime families are known to operate outside of Cyprus; in the United Kingdom, as well as in South Africa. Cypriots, although ethnically Greek, have their own traditions and have always had a strong tradition of organized crime, similar their brethren on the mainland and the island of Crete. The Cypriots tend to operate in small family-like cells, with a “father”, his “sons” and a few associates. Working with fellow local criminals, the Greek-Cypriot mafia tends to accept other nationalities inside their family like cells. Outside of the Americas and Europe, there is also reportedly a strong Greek organized crime presence in Australia. Vito Andolini Corleone (December 7, 1891 – July 29, 1955) (born Vito Andolini in Corleone, Province of Palermo, Sicily, Italy) is a fictional character in Mario Puzo’s novel The Godfather and in Francis Ford Coppola’s first two films, where he was portrayed by Marlon Brando in The Godfather and, as a young man, by Robert De Niro in The Godfather Part II. Premiere Magazine listed Vito Corleone as the greatest film character in history. The Flamingo Hotel & Casino Bugsy Siegel opened The Flamingo Hotel & Casino at a total cost of $6 million on December 26, 1946. Billed as “The West’s Greatest Resort Hotel,” the 105-room property and first luxury hotel on the Strip was built seven miles from Downtown Las Vegas. Siegel named the resort after his girlfriend Virginia Hill, who loved to gamble and whose nickname was “Flamingo,” a nickname Siegel gave her due to her long, skinny legs. Siegel’s trouble with the Flamingo began when, a year after the official groundbreaking, the resort had produced no revenue and drained the resources of his mob investors. Then Meyer Lansky charged — at a major mob meeting in Cuba — that either Siegel or Hill was skimming from the resort’s building budget. “There was no doubt in Meyer’s mind,” Luciano recalled in his memoir, “that Bugsy had skimmed this dough from his building budget, and he was sure that Siegel was preparing to skip. Luciano and the other mob leaders in Cuba asked Lansky what to do. Torn because of long ties to Siegel, whom he considered like a brother, Lansky nevertheless agreed that someone stealing from his friends had to go. Lansky persuaded the others to wait for the Flamingo’s casino opening: if it was a success, Siegel could be persuaded in other ways to repay. Luciano persuaded the others to agree. The Flamingo re-opened in March 1947, and this time, the results proved different. By May, the resort reported a $250,000 profit, allowing Lansky to point out that Siegel was right about Las Vegas after all. But it wasn’t quite enough to save Siegel. On June 20, 1947, relaxing in the Beverly Hills house he shared with Hill, who was away at the time, Siegel was shot to death. The “Camorra” is an Italian Mafia-type crime syndicate, that originated in the region of Campania and its capital Naples. It is one of the oldest and largest criminal organizations in Italy, dating back to the 18th century. Unlike the pyramidal structure of the Sicilian Mafia, the Camorra’s organizational structure is more horizontal than vertical. Consequently, individual Camorra clans act independently of each other, and are more prone to feuding among themselves. One of the Camorra’s strategies to gain social prestige is political patronage. The familial clans became the preferred interlocutors of local politicians and public officials, because of their grip on the community. In turn, the clan bosses use their political sway to assist and protect their clients against the local authorities. Despite the Camorra’s origins, the organization presently has important ramifications in other Italian regions, such as Lombardy, Piedmont, Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna. Salvatore “Sammy the Bull” Gravano (born March 12, 1945) is a former underboss of the Gambino crime family. He is known as the man who helped bring down John Gotti, the family’s boss, by agreeing to become a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) witness. Originally a mobster for the Colombo crime family, and later for the Brooklyn faction of the Gambinos, Gravano participated in the conspiracy to murder Gambino boss Paul Castellano. Gravano played a key role in planning and executing Castellano’s murder; other conspirators included John Gotti, Angelo Ruggiero, Frank DeCicco, and Joseph Armone. After Castellano’s death, Gotti elevated Gravano to underboss, a position he held at the time he became a government witness. At the time, Gravano was the highest-ranking member of the Five Families to break his Cosa Nostra oath and cooperate with the government. His testimony drew a wave of Cosa Nostra members to also become government witnesses.
