    According to Paul Sann in his classic book, "Kill the Dutchman," another reason Luciano had to bump off Dutch was that Lucky had been in contact with Dutch's No. 2, Bo Weinberg, about taking over the numbers rackets in partnership with Weinberg. Sann described Bo as interested. Bruce Willis plays the doomed Bo in the famous cement overshoes scene in "Billy Bathgate." Just another reason Lucky was pissed off at Dutch.
    Luciano did get the numbers racket (minus Abbadaba Berman, alas) when the smoke cleared at the Palace Chop House; Lepke got everything else. Business is business.
    Sann's story of how Dutch got control of the numbers rackets in Harlem and East Harlem is precious. His tale of Dutch's last ramblings is also excellent.

    Interesting side note…
    Jewish gangsters lasted only one generation.
    It never passed down to their kids.
    They weren’t gangsters in the old country.
    It was out of sheer immigrant desperation.
    Then it stopped.

    At 57 I recently learned my grandmothers cousin was Harry (Happy) Maione (mayone). This I learned while in NY attending my mothers funeral. My paternal grandmother Olga Del Buono's family came from Fume Freddo near Calabria. Harry was not a point of pride in the family. My grandfather Joseph Mascaro was a doctor his brothers worked to pay for his degree. He later took care of them. The subject matter of your conversation is off point - cocaine? Vs alcohol? Harry was from what I hear, very conscious of the danger he brought to family with simple visits. Sounds like you did a google search on the subject. So much more to it all.

    I grew up in Brownsville in the 70's and 80's. We were a Black and Puerto-Rican neighborhood by then. I'm Black, and as I listen to you ( the American ) speak, you sound like a White guy to me. And you sound much younger than me. You claimed to have hung out in Brownsville, I'm assuming for research purposes. But I wonder how were you able to do so. It's a pretty scary place, then and now. ( I love your telling of Murder Inc. history by the way ) So how'd you do it? You couldn't pay me to go near that place by now. I'd be scared to death.

    • @TheUnderworldPodcast
      @TheUnderworldPodcast  Місяць тому

      It's really not that scary now compared to how it was when you grew up. New York in general isn't close to what it was. When you look at the murder rate in a city like st louis, or hang out in north st louis at night, it's a lot worse than nyc. Now, NYC in the 70's, 80's, 90's? Different story. But yeah, I worked a crime reporter in NYC 13-14 years ago so was in Brownsville often, and I used to kick it with some west indians that had parties there in the summer every so often.
