The Cleveland, Ohio Family of LCN

THE CLEVELAND OUTFIT

The City of Cleveland has always ranked high in the Mafia of the United States.

From their seat on The Commission, to their vast control over labor unions, this borgata has always counted!

PS: I had promised our forum member Galassi70 that I’d write an expose on Cleveland. I always try and be a man of my word. I hope you like it and that I did this story justice.

In the future I want to create a Cleveland pictorial gallery as well as well as thumbnails like I did for Chicago. But I didn’t wanna make you wait any longer for the story.

Cant wait to read this one!

I hope you like it. There was a lot more history to write, but I had to draw the line somewhere otherwise I would still not be done. So at the least they'll be a series of "thumbnails profiles w/pictorials", in the future, if not a full second (historical) chapter.

Very well done.
One thing about John.Scalish...He was % 100 anti narcotics

So this is another defunct family?

Are there any families that were seen as being defunct that have made a come back?

Hi British, yes, there had been much banter and debate back and forth about the Buffalo/Niagara Falls Family of Magaddino. In recents years many said they were defunct.

Yet. we now see that indeed they are still around. An undercover police probe in Canada caught on tape and film several mobsters discussing there recent elevation in the Buffalo Family, it's hierarchy and activities.

Another is the Rockford, Illinois Family of Zammuto. While doing a report on them I discovered that they are still active, despite my thought that those smaller type crews were long gone.

Most stay defunct once they're gone, but Buffalo was certainly a miscalculation.

Interesting Read...

Thank you FOF. I know you know that section of the country well. So I appreciate the compliment.

Thanks for the update
