#32: Philadelphia Mob Hits: Volume III

#32: Philadelphia Mob Hits: Volume III

In this episode, the third of this series, we cover several mob hits that occurred in and around Philadelphia's Bruno Crime Family of LCN during the 1960's. This video focuses on the battle that occurred for control of Philadelphia's Teamsters Local 107, between the Mafia and law-abiding members of the union.

Our goal of these episodes is to dispel the myth that Angelo Bruno—"The Docile Don"—was a non-violent Boss. In fact, evidence will show that he likely handed down many hit contracts, which we will go over in detail over the course of Volumes I and beyond. For Cosa Nostra Bosses in this era, ordering hits was standard operating procedure and could not be avoided.

While we will cover many slayings during the "Hits" episodes, in this particular video we talk about the following gangland murders, related specifically to Teamsters Local 107:

1) John Gorey & Rita Yanda (1966)

2) Robert DeGeorge (1967)

The murders of the three individuals above were among the most heinous and saddest that I've covered as part of this series, and shows the level of influence and control that the mob had in Local 107 at the time.
