number 12 is incorrect. very close by chardee and f white but incorrect!

thanks everyone that participated.

i thought 11, 12 and 15 were the hardest and well done turnbull and chardee for the spelling on number 8.(it was noted!)

Whats the answer to 12?

this is cheating! lol but the answer is mario destefano. he was said to of killed mad sam, his brother.

oh and sam and mario were said to have killed their younger brother michael as well. so both of you were right as well so apologies! I should of said made member. mario was made, sam weren't because he was a psycho

talk about brotherly love!! mario and same kills michael. then mario kills sam! then mario dies of a heart attack shortly after!

I wish you just had not of stated that above Liborio, I sense this thread blowing up because of Sam being stated as not being made.

Cool but for the record Tony Spilotro was the allegedly trigger man not Mario.

yeah that's the murder i was referring to when i choose mad sam for #12, i didn't know anything about mario being involved in sam's murder

also i read somewhere that it was tony spilotro who killed his once mentor mad sam with a shotgun in a garage. i believe because he was about to make the outfit look bad in a courtroom with his usual nutcase antics lol
