To my knowledge Corky had no brother. He had a brother in law Danny who was also a made guy in their crew. His uncle was a Genovese soldier named Swats Mulligan. Another well respected mob veteran.


Swats mulligan was a heavy.from what I understand he would murder people w ice picks in the 50s and 60s..Genovese soldier in jersey and Florida...believe he was close to Paulie Visterio one of the first leaders of the purple gang in the Bronx and Harlem and Don Arnow the founder of Cigarette Boats


I'm not all that familiar with his backstory although he ran an electricians union local years back and was into labor rackets, etc.

Do you mean Frank Viserto from E. Harlem? He was one of the founders of The Purple Gang up there in the mid-1970s.
