2)  Lucky Luciano and the Mob

Lucky Luciano started out as a violent street thug, but soon became a skilful and ruthless leader, who fast rose to the top of the Mafia in the early 1930's. He was a brutal killer with the imagination to mastermind the organisation of the gangs into a powerful national force; a gangster who always kept one step ahead of the law and infamously once boasted, 'I buried hundreds of guys'.

At the height of his power, "Lucky" Luciano had a New York mayor and police chief on his payroll. Even U.S. government sought help during World War II. Thanks to crusading prosecutor Thomas Dewey, Luciano was deported in 1946. He vowed to return and was true to his word: after his death in Italy, Lucky Luciano was buried in a New York grave.
