I was just watching the season four dvd set and came across an episode with Rosie Grier and Danny Aiello (how young they were!). Rosie played a bounty hunter and Danny played a mob guy (big surprise ).

Anyway, they were all after a hitman named Tony Mirra. I'd never picked up on it before even though I'd seen the episode many times before. But I wonder if they didn't borrow the name from the Bonanno soldier of the same name? I mean, Mirra was well known to law enforcement by 1976 (when the episode originally aired), and your Hollywood types have always had an in or two in that world, so I wonder?
