Bonanno: Yes. He was Maranzano's underboss and chief of staff during the Castellammarese war. He was in his twenties and probably fearless back then. Plus, he supposedly owned a funeral parlor that used double decker caskets, it makes it easier to believe that he was hands on with the murders.


Nobody is ever born a made man, no matter what family he is born into. There is less evidence of Lansky ever killing anyone. There is no evidence of Bugsy Seigel, Sam Giancana or Paul Ricca killing anyone either.
