Ive been kind of getting into making charts of organized crime gangs here's one I made that some of you might find intresting
An East Boston based gang with the Portuguese-American mob killer Joseph "The Animal" Barboza as its leader.
The Crew was mainly known for taking hit contracts from the North End faction of the Patriarca family and started out as muscle for Irish gang leader Wimpy Bennett.Had a falling-out with his LCN masters in 1966, and while he was in jail on a gun charge, they began killing off his little East Boston crew. He late became the first member of the Government's witness protection program, and decided to lie about some mafia hoodlums from the North End that he didnt quite like.
