The Carmine Galante hit was done by Bruno Indelicato, Sonny Black and Dominick Trinchera, all three of them capos.
Wrong, I'm pretty certain Sonny black was only upped to captain AFTER Galante's murder
Reason is, they considered Mike Sabella as a Galante guy but since he was well liked, he accepted to be demoted and Sonny took over. Which is why Lefty ended up under Sonny
Bruno too was rewarded as a capo for the hit. He to the best of my knowledge wasn't a capo beforehand. No idea regarding big Trin though
The Galante hit was actually done by Bruno Indelicato and Russell Mauro while Dominick Trinchera held staff at bay further back in the restaurant. Obviously Cesaer Bonaventre and Baldo Amato were present and in on the hit but were not involved in the actual shooting. The getaway car was driven by another zip, Santo Giordano.
Apparently,Indelicato nailed Joe Turano, restraunt owner/bonnano soldier/galantes cousin and Leonardo Capolla a bonnano captain also dinning with them. Mauro was the one who dropped Galante.
Stationed outside further down the street were Joe Massino, Phil Giaconne, Al "Sonny Red" Indelicato and JB Indelicato.
Of all involved here I believe only Sonny Red and Phil Lucky were captains at the time of the Galante slaying. All others were soldiers at that point with Massino and Trinchera being "upped" as a result of this killing.
Sonny Black Napolitano was made captain to replace Mike Sabella who's crew he came up in, after his demotion following the Galante hit. I've never heard a version where he was involved in Carmines murder.
