First time poster from Los Angeles. Despite not being a "mafia city," LA has a pretty good mob history.

While the L.A. Crime Family is largely defunct, there is a supposedly a large East Coast/Chicago presence in Los Angeles. In the 1990s, Joe Dente from the Genovese was out here and Frank Buccieri from Chicago to run things.

There was also a crew from New England at one point too, that went to prison for years for robbing a family in Woodland Hills and kidnapping the father.

Does anyone have a list of made guys/associates who operate here on the West Coast and their affiliation?

Here are a few:

Ronnie Lorenzo (Bonnano)
Tommy Gambino (LA/Gambino)
Donnie Shacks (Colombo)

There's also mob royalty like Johnny Fratto who is on Howard Stern.

Former mobsters who live in LA include Anthony Fiato, Kenny Gallo and Michael Franzese.
