Mobsters You Would Like to see Covered in TV Doc

If a new series came out about mobsters who would you like to see covered. My list is: Fat tony salerno, trigger mike coppola, carlo gambino, bumpy johnson, paul ricca and murray humphreys

Giuseppe Morello or any early figure, Tony Bender, Aniello Delacroce, Philip Rastelli maybe some Murder Inc. members

Tommy gambino never rose higher then a capo but probaly meet and had disscussions with every boss or close across america you would think but he probaly didnt get his hands dirty other then union shit which he probaly just asked and they said yes. Hes still alive i think. Then just cause i from around providence ray jr. But ive seen news and papers articles about him would be boring. Whatching the 30/30 boston college point shaving pretty cool. So harsh. Thou.

Like to see one on Milwaukee Phil and/or the Rockford Illinois family...

A 3 seasons serie on the 3 colombo wars.

Joseph Arcuri. I'm fascinated how he was able to avoid serving prison time and yet be such a big earner. He also served for just about every boss in the Gambino family and lived to be 91 without getting locked up.

Eugene smaldone Denver
John scalish Cleveland
John dippolito La
Girolamo Adamo La

I wonder why they stopped making the mobsters documentaries...They have to get good ratings I would think !!

Sonny Franzese
Fat Tont Salerno
Tony ducks

it would be stefano magaddino. the longest serving don in lcn history from 1922-1974. an original from 1931 in the beginning of italian organized crime. ran an empire that was large, and geographically diverse from practically all of upstate n.y. into eastern ohio, the province of ontario in canada with some influence into montreal.

Like to see guys from 80's till now,enough with barrels spilling beer.a 1000 years ago.

nondescript figure with a deep history back to tampa and sicily before that..good choice

trigger mike also

Sonny Franzese
Joe Watts
Vincent Basciano
Nicholas Corozzo
Barney Bellomo

He was the one who did it right. I'd love to see a detailed documentary about his life, but not many people want to do a documentary about someone no one knows.

I agree ralphie basciano is someone I'd like to see a good doc on.

great list

Yeah, that guy did a whole lot during his short career. By the time he turned 21, he was already Big Trin's driver. Was a millionaire by the time he turned 28 and was one of the most interesting people involved in the Blue Thunder case, a case he wound up beating. He was everything in the Bronx, highly respected. A hoodlum through and through.

-Frank Locascio
-Dominick cirillo
-Nicholas Marangello
-Ronald Trucchio

great list also

Greg Scarpa, that put a gun in a klansman mouth for understand where are the civil right activists bodies.

Joe Watts

yes, its time for some new docs, lucianno, Costello, lansky, and the 5 N.Y bosses have been covered over and over. I agree with ralphie on franzese that's a must doc.

Ritchie "the boot" Boiardo.
paul ricca

santos trafficante

sindey korshak

rocco "parrotnose" potenza

Red Levine

Anthony Indelicato

Alfonso Caruana

Vincent Alo
Benny Squint
Patsy Conte
Gerardo Catena
Any Pizza Connection player

Giuseppe Morello
Salvatore D'Aquila
Joe Masseria
Salvatore Maranzano
Nicolo Gentile
Tommaso Buscetta
John Roselli
Sam Rothstein
Joe Di Maulo
Salvatore Montagna
Raynald Desjardins

Nicky 'Nicky Mouth'' Santoro: He lived through the Joe Bonanno era of controlling the family, 3 capo murder, galante whacking, pistone infiltrating the family, massino controlling the family, and he lived through it all.

Joe Arcuri
Anthony Scotto
Matthew Ianniello
Mario Gigante
Albert Gallo

Joey Merlino...

cant say i've ever seen a true doc dedicated to his life from the beginning, him coming up in South Philly and during his time as boss.

mobsters covered Greg already

You guys had a lot of good suggestions. I agree, the older docs did cover quite of few of the older guys. Some young bloods need a bit of coverage too. I forgot about Sonny. Hes a legend

I would like to see a different doc on mob lawyers like sidney koshak, frank ragano and roy cohn. Bruce cutler has been covered enough

there were some great bill kurtis/A&E docs on joey merlino in the 90's

yes, korshack would be interesting, as would ragano, probably wouldn't know much about them when they were alive, but, now that they have passed, there is much that could come out.

I think it would be cool to see them do a good two hour doc based on the book Five Families with interviews of rats we haven't heard from yet, and rare news footage and pics.

I think John Gotti would be a good pick I don't think they have one about him yet.

A documentary on Kefauver Hearings would be cool with unreleased footage. Even a legit Paul Castellano one with some clips from the wire taps.

Anyone of the names above would be good but I would like to see some unreleased surveillance photos or wire taps instead on the same old stuff

Tino Fiumara
Cherry Hill Gambinos
Gaetano Vastola
Michael Taccetta

Love the taccetta idea. Both brothers in one would be great. Even a jersey crew doc. Anything on newark guys in general. Bobby Manna would be good too.mim obviously biased being a north jersey guy.

I have an old vhs tape of a history channel special called ''mouth piece'' of Ragano...Also one about James La Rossa and Bobby Simone...The Ragano and La Rossa one's were two of the best doc's I've seen...I've tried to find it online to post here but can't find it anywhere !!

Anyione got links to gangsters americas most evil season 3 they have an ep on Rudaj

No links but reelz channel plays it often. It may be on their on demand. Good episode.

Tony Provenzano - between the teamsters and the hoffa shit alone thatd be fascinating

Funzi tieri- there's nothing out there about him prior to his involvment in the Bruno hit really

Christie Tick- always fascinated me

Gerry Catena- one of the richest wiseguys ever.. i believe his relative owns those Catena car dealerships in North Jersey right?
