Iani spent a lot of time out on island with the patriarch of the family, a man he called giuseppi. I'm pretty sure that's his pseudondym for the legendary mob boss tommy lucasey who came to america as a young man in 19 11 from palermo. By 19 70, iani calculated that there were forty two fourth generation members of the family and only four of those forty two were still involved in the family's businesses. The rest were all respectable members of the upper middle class. They had a lock on the trucking unions, particularly those working kennedy airport.
