This can be disputed though… Profaci and Bonanno were a deadly combination together…. You said a while back that Lucchese/Gambino weren’t going to mess with them…. They (Profaci/Bonanno) we’re originals and seniors on the commission.


Zavattoni, I gotta agree with everything you said. Especially about Profaci and Bonanno being "originals" and seniors on The Commission.

I am getting this from over 20 years of researching this topic. He was never an official boss and that's that.

But please provide the evidence. We're all waiting lol

But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away

I’m on my phone right note because my computer broke so many of the files I have weren’t accessable. There are many files that refer to him as a former boss

Nobody ever talks about the Jewish gangsters in discussions like these. I'm still going through Zwillman's FBI files (and not just that one volume you recommended....the other ones on the FBI Vault. There's a LOT.

I might have asked you this before, but do you think Zwillman really committed suicide?

Lepke had lots of money. So did Zwillman and a lot of other Jewish hoodlums.
