September 23, 1893 - Frank Scalice
Scalice operated at the upper levels of what would become one of New York's most enduring organized crime organizations, serving both as boss and later as consigliere during the consolidation era of American organized crime. His career spanned decades of internal power struggles within the five families, and his end — shot while shopping in the Bronx — reflected the violent internal enforcement that characterized the world he helped build.
