"I read in Albert d'meos book that Neil dellacroce was in murder inc?" -Dbm7

"Lepke Bucholter was probably the most powerful and richest individual gangster of the Thirties." - Turnbull

I'm skeptical about that. Lepke was depending on the Mafia to pull strings to cut him some slack on his indictments, and it never came through. He was also paying a cut on everything he did to the Mafia. Do we know what the Mafia's cut was? It could have been half of everything Lepke pulled in for all we know. Maybe more.
