	Luciano Leggio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Luciano Leggio (some sources spell his surname Liggio) (1925–January 16, 1993) was a powerful member of the Sicilian Mafia.
		Leggio took control of the Corleonisi in 1958 after having Michele Navarra murdered, and over the next five-years he led a group of younger mafiosi (including Salvatore Riina and Bernardo Provenzano) against Navarra's faction.
		In the Maxi Trial of 1986/1987, Leggio faced charges of helping to run the Corleonisi from behind bars, including the accusation that he ordered the murder of prosecutor Cesare Terranova, who was shot dead in 1979, but he was acquitted of all charges due to lack of evidence.

	Salvatore Riina:
		The head of the Corleonesi was Michele Navarra until 1958 when he was shot to death on the orders of Luciano Liggio, a ruthless 33-year-old mafioso who subsequently became the new boss.
		Riina and Leggio were arrested and tried in 1969 for murders carried out earlier that decade.
		In 1974 Luciano Liggio was arrested and imprisoned for the murder of Michele Navarra sixteen-years previously, and although Liggio retained some influence from behind bars, Riina was now the effective head of the Corleonesi.

		But, government agents soon discovered Luciano's presence in Cuba, and he was forced to return to Italy where he continued to issue orders to the states and got his monthly cut of the syndicates revenues delivered by special couriers.

		The most well known of the freelance bandits that roamed the Sicilian countryside were Salvatore Giuliano, who came closest to a modern day Robin Hood, and was a strongly advocated a free and independent Sicily.
		After the death of Calogero Vizzini in 1954, the Mafia turned to activities associated with “gangsterism,” a more reckless “American style of crime.” In 1957, Lucky Luciano orchestrated the alliance between the families in the United States and Canada.
		Unlike Vizzini and his generation of mobsters, who maintained at least a veneer of civility, and could have easily passed for a dignified resident of society, the newcomers like Genco Russo, Michele Greco and Luciano Leggio, although sharp and quick in certain regards, were truly vulgar by nature.

	The Mafia in Sicilian History, Sicilian Corruption, the European Commission
		The wartime collaboration of Sicilian-born Salvatore "Lucky" Luciano with the United States Navy may have made the Allied invasion of Sicily smoother than it otherwise would have been, but the Iron Prefect's enforcement of the Duce's laws had already made most mafiosi sympathetic to the American cause, or at least hostile to the Fascist one.
		The surrender, without even token resistance, of thousands of Italian troops at Pantelleria, shortly before the main attack on Sicily, made it clear that most Italian recruits were unwilling to risk their lives for a lost cause.
		It was Lucky Luciano, of all people, who orchestrated the alliance.

	Independent, The (London): Truth stranger than fiction as stars meet the Mob on location
		The traffic is not all one way: some top Sicilian mafiosi were so taken by the American Mafia look as depicted in Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather films that they went to lengths to imitate it.
		Luciano Leggio, a feared Cosa Nostra boss in the Seventies and Eighties, was much photographed during his court appearances in Palermo in 1974, with a fat cigar in the side of his mouth and big sunglasses clamped over his eyes.
		Even the sober and cautious Bernardo Provenzano is not immune to the charisma of celluloid.
