Salvatore Maranzano Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Salvatore Maranzano (July 31, 1886 – September 10, 1931) was an organized crime figure from the town of Castellammare del Golfo, Sicily, and an early Cosa Nostra boss in the United States. He instigated the Castellammarese War to seize control of the American Mafia operations, and briefly became the Mafia's "Boss of Bosses". He was assassinated by a younger faction led by Charles "Lucky" Luciano, who established a power-sharing arrangement rather than a "boss of bosses" to prevent future wars.
Killed on the orders of Tommy Lucchese with the backing of Lucky Luciano. After the murders of Maranzano and chief rival Giuseppe Masseria, Luciano established The Commission, restructuring organized crime in New York City among the so-called "Five Families". Ironically, The Commission was the brainchild of Maranzano, minus the idea of a "Boss of All Bosses" at its the head.
