Bompensiero had numerous dealings in Las Vegas with Cleveland mobster and casino owner Moe Dalitz and Chicago Outfit mobster Anthony Spilotro. He also counted retired Bonanno crime family boss Joseph Bonanno in Arizona, and John Roselli as allies.
In the early 1970s, Bompensiero and Tony Spilotro started a large loan sharking operation in Las Vegas. In November 1975, acting as driver, Bompensiero helped Spilotro murder Tamara Rand, a multi millionaire real estate broker and investor from San Diego.
Frank Bompensiero was shot to death at close range with a silenced .22 caliber handgun while walking home after using a pay phone outside an Arco Station in the Pacific Beach neighborhood of San Diego. In 1978, Fratianno told law enforcement that mob associate Thomas Ricciardi had killed Bompensiero in return for membership in the Los Angeles family. When Ricciardi shot Bompensiero, Jack LoCicero was waiting in the getaway car. The government later charged Ricciardi with Bompensiero's murder, but he died of heart disease before the trial could start. The rest of the defendants were acquitted of murder at the trial, but were convicted of racketeering.
Both in Ndrangheta and Cosa Nostra you can find the same family names going back to even the late 19th century.
I agree. Whether they hail from Campania, Calabria or Sicily, each particular region or province boasts their own unique but respective surnames -- generation after generation after generation -- which are unique to that particular southern region.
Indeed very clannish like a monarchy LOL.
Yes, camorrista, ndranhetista and mafiosi view organized crime as a 'generational' "family" business. The word family being used in the truest sense of the word.
This is what DJT wants, but it should benefit both countries.
Dutch chip giant ASM International is considering moving part of the production of chip machines from Singapore to the United States 'if that works to our advantage', says CFO Paul Verhagen on BNR.
At the moment, the company still enjoys an exemption from the import duties that the US has introduced, but that may change, the company's CFO also realizes.
In any case, this does not include moving the head office - which is in Almere - to the US. 'The head office is in the Netherlands and will remain in the Netherlands.' Verhagen does say that his company can produce 'small quantities in America' 'if that is ultimately more efficient than doing the production where we do it now, particularly in Singapore'. 'We have flexibility and we can possibly move to America, if that works to our advantage.'
