Carlo Gambino

Carlo Gambino
In 1969 Carlo Gambino a.k.a. Don Carlo who was the Mafia boss from 1957-1976 was charged with masterminding an armed robbery truck hijacking. Born in Palermo, Sicily, Gambino entered the U.S. illegally and never became a citizen. With that, the Feds tried to have him deported however, Gambino would always end up in the hospital for his bad health and his doctors proved he had heart trouble therefore would not be able to make the trip. By happenstance in October of 1976, Gambino died of a heart attack while watching the New York Yankees. It was rumored that Gambino’s family bought off two U.S. Senators (who have always remained unnamed) to allow him to remain in the United States. The payoff was for $25,000 a year for each of the Senators for life, if the deportation order was stopped.
