	Frank Scalise (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Frank Scalise ("Ciccio," "Cheech") was an important Mafioso in the Bronx.
		Scalise ran into trouble with the Commission in 1957 when he was found to be selling Mafia memberships for as much as $50,000 apiece.
		Scalise and Anselmi were believed to have taken part - with Brooklyn's Frankie Uale (who put his expertise at the disposal of the nation's Unione Siciliana members and may have been doing the Gennas, rather than Al Capone, a favor here) - in the assassination of Dion O'Banion.

		Frank Scalise was a loving husband and father, according to his wife, someone to whom others routinely turned for help.

		The court found that the search was reasonable, and thus legal, because this was an emergency situation and there was clear evidence that Dempsey posed a risk of harm.

		Following a brief period under the control of Frank Scalise, the first recognised leader of what would become the Gambino family was Vincent Mangano, an old-school Mafia don in the style of Masseria and Maranzano but one who was tolerated due to his close ties with Emil Camarda, vice-president of the International Longshoremen's Association.
		Vito Genovese was a power-hungry underboss in the family and needed a way to remove the close ties between Costello and Anastasia, which provided solidarity in the National Crime Syndicate for the two bosses.
		On December 16, Bilotti and Castellano were heading for a meeting with capo Frank DeCicco at the Sparks Steak House on East 46th Street, when they were gunned down by four unidentified men in the middle of rush hour.

	Joseph Valachi (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In September and October 1963 the gravel-voiced, chain-smoking killer enthralled much of the national television audience as he told Senator John L. McClellan and the Senate Permanent Investigations Subcommittee about the inner structure of the Mafia and organized crime.
		The Valachi revelations were often chilling, including the details of a number of murders in which he took part.
		There is need, in a historical sense, to compare, Valachi's many disclosures to the later revelations in the memoirs or reminiscences of such syndicate higher-ups as Luciano, Lansky and Doc Stacher, among others.
