What world are you living in? The mob has been heavy into heroin since the French Connection in the 1950's. Marcello and Traficante were importing drugs from South America. Genovese, Tommy Eboli, Galante, Natale Evola, Carmine Trumunti, and Paul Sciacca all did prison time for drugs while serving as boss or acting boss.
