	Stefano Bontade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stefano’s father, Francesco Paolo Bontade, was one of the most powerful mafiosi on the island and a pallbearer at the funeral of Mafia boss Calogero Vizzini – one of the most influential Mafia bosses of Sicily after World War II until his death in 1954.
		Bontade and other banished mafiosi managed to get into the market of international cigarette smuggling by imposing first their protection, and later their involvement, upon the smugglers in Naples (who were connected with the Camorra) and Palermo who had been running this activity since the 1950s.
		Stefano Bontade was also in touch with Silvio Berlusconi in the mid-1970s, when Berlusconi still was just a wealthy real estate developer and started his private television empire (Berlusconi became prime minister in 1994 and again from 2001-2006).

		Consequently, when a policeman or judge was killed it was the more visible Mafia Families who were the subject of official investigations, especially as these assassinations were deliberately carried out in the territory (or 'turf') of the Corleonesi's rivals rather than anywhere near the town of Corleone itself.
		The Corleonesi's primary rivals were Stefano Bontade, Salvatore Inzerillo and Gaetano Badalamenti, bosses of various powerful Palermo Mafia Families.
		On April 23, 1981, Bontade was machine-gunned to death, and a few weeks later, on May 11, Inzerillo was torn apart by a hail of bullets.

		The coastal area is controlled by the ARENA family which is in conflict with the NICOSIA family, ally of the GRANDE-ARACRI family.

		Within a few years, Bonanno was actively bootlegging for the Cola Schiro organization (which appears to have been cofounded by another Bonanno relative, Stefano Maggadino, some years earlier and which included a large number of Castellamarese immigrants).
		Bonanno was a staunch supporter of Salvatore Maranzano in the Castellamarese War, but was welcomed into the new Mafia hierarchy after Maranzano's assassination in 1931.
		Bonanno claimed that Colombo was working directly with Buffalo's Stefano Magaddino (a relative of Bonanno's) and indirectly with Carlo Gambino and Tommy Lucchese to take over Bonanno's organization.
