Anthony "Tough Tony" Anastasio was Albert Anastsia's brother (Albert changed his last name to save his family embarrassment as legend goes) who was a Gambino (at that time the Anastasia family, formerly the Mangano family) capo who controlled the Brooklyn waterfront through control of ILA 1814.

According to this FBI document, after Albert's murder he was afraid he was next and contacted the FBI to confirm if there was a plot on his life. Does anyone know more about the Pete DeFeo and Coppolino mentioned in the document?

It sounds like he's really underestimating the wiley old Don Carlo who probably killed his brother in the first place. He was also worried about Hoffa and Tony Pro trying to make a move on his ILA interests.
