I know you're just talking about New York here, but if you go outside New York I would argue that Philly is the most violent in the country, in that they have had about the same number of hits as the Genovese in the past 15 years but are much smaller (like 10 times as small? something like that). So when it comes to "hits per capita" or whatever, Philly is the worst.

Of course if you extend this to include Canada, Montreal is the "winner" hands down.


You're probably right about Philadelphia, relative to its size. I count a soldier (Martorano) and 4 associates (Finelli, Casasanto, Maniscalco, and DiPietro) killed, plus 2 associates (Perrotta, Beebee) wounded, since 2000.

The Genovese have had a steady stream of hits, but no extremely violent eras like the other four families. Vic & Gas whacked about 30 guys in 7 years. Gambinos were dropping people like flies durung the Castellano and Gotti years. Colombos had been at war for decades. Bonannos were at war from the Banana war until the Pizza case..

The Genovese family has done plenty of hits, they are just more subtle about it. Someone goes missing but no body is found, you really can't say a murder took place, the guy just skipped town. Only time a body is found is for leaving a message. The family it seems now a days is to use murder as a final resort.
On a side note, Illiano and Longo crews merged. Gallo retired, Longo is now a soldier and Anthony "Figgy" kid is now the skipper of that crew.
