Apparently, there were a lot of cockeyed mob guys walking around town. LOL. We listed six of them below. Of the following hoodlums, there are four of them who are connected to New York-based crews.

The question is, who are they?...Its your job to figure out which four they are. Think you know the answers? Then have at it....

A) Cockeyed Phil
B) Cockeyed Benny
C) Cockeyed Nick
D) Cockeyed Sam
E) Cockeyed Angie
F) Cockeyed Joe

Cockeyed Nick Rattenni was one of those powerhouse guys that was very much under the radar. Was at the top of all carting for Rockland and Westchester counties and probably owned more real estate than McDonald’s.

Thats right, RomanNE. Bravo! You picked "Cockeyed Nick" Rattenni and that is a correct answer.

You're also correct when you say that he was a powerhouse. Rattenni was, as you mentioned, one of the most powerful mafioso to ever operate in Westchester and Rockland Counties. My understanding is that he came up under Rocco Pellegrino's crew, and later became a capo himself...and a powerful one at that. He was also reportedly very close to consigliere/boss Frank Costello.

How about the others listed? Do you have any thoughts about who any of them could be?

Here are the answers to this question...RomanNE got Nicholas Rattenni (Genovese Family) correct. Here are the other three NY-based guys;

A) Philip Lombardo (Genovese)
B) John Malizia (Lucchese)
E) Angelo Mascia (Gambino)
-
Letter D was Samuel Perrone (Detroit) and letter F was Joseph (Cockeyed Joe) Catalanotte (also of Detroit)
