The BWM history is murky, but it seems that AR was in fact the leader till Joe the Boss began making his moves to take over all of New York. After Rothstein was murdered in 1928, Salvatore Luciano became the boss. From 1926 till Rothstein dead, there was an unknown Italian member who was boss over The Broadway Mob, who sponsored many of the young members in that crew, Joe Adonis, Frank Costello, Paolo Fraccacreta, Vito Genovese, Thomas Greco, and Salvatore Luciano. After the war the unknown member remained a soldier direct with the administration, even when Genovese took over. Frank Costello, Paolo Fraccacreta, and Thomas Greco all attended his wake and funeral in the 1960s.
