had emerged in the late 19th century the

prohibition era which began in 1919 and
1:13
ended in
1:14
1933 provided an unprecedented
1:17
opportunity for organized crime the

demand for illegal alcohol led to a boom
1:24
in bootlegging and the mafia's influence

the Italian-American Mafia eagerly
1:30
jumped into this new source of income
1:33
establishing complex networks of

Smugglers Distributors and
1:38
enforcers during this period powerful

ruthlessness under lucano's leadership
1:57
the mafia reorganized weaving a deadly
2:00
web of five families that ruled New

York's illegal businesses with an iron
2:05
fist but their reach knew no bounds from
2:10
the Frantic hustle of the docks to the
2:12
luxurious salons of Chicago their Dark
2:15
Shadow spread like a plague in this

context crazy Joe was born his father
2:24
Umberto was no stranger to the world of
2:27
crime having been a bootlegger during
2:30
prohibition the era when alcohol was
2:33
illegal in the United States the profits
2:36
from his illicit activities allowed him
2:39
to invest in Lone sharking and this
2:41
criminal vocation was something his
2:44
three sons embraced from a young age
2:47
paternal warnings were no match for the
2:49
stronger pull of criminal blood which
2:52
proved more effective than any advice
2:55
Joe grew up in the Kensington
2:57
neighborhood then considered part of
2:59
Flatbush where the Gallow family ran a
3:01
small Cafe called Jackie charallo

located at 108 Beverly Road this
3:08
establishment thrived on the pedestrian

district and subway station attracting a
3:15
diverse clientele that came and went
3:18
along the bustling Avenue Joe's

education began at the local Primary
3:23
School in Kensington at 16 he continued
3:27
his studies at the Brooklyn High School
3:29
of Automotive trades in
3:31
Williamsburg however his fate was sealed
3:34
long before he could imagine a life
3:37
outside the world of crime the influence
3:41
of his environment coupled with the lack
3:43
of an alternative life model led him to
3:46
follow in his Father's Footsteps shortly
3:49
after a car accident that left him with
3:52
a brain injury and a nervous tick our
3:55
protagonist along with his associates
3:58

burra Park in
4:23
1949 Joe Gallow watched the movie Kiss
4:26
of Death and Richard whitmar's portrayal
4:29
of gangster Tommy Udo left such a
4:32
profound impression on him that he began
4:34
to imitate the character and recite his
4:38
lines this imitation not only reflected
4:41
his fascination with Gangster films but
4:44
also his desire to adopt a more fearsome
4:47
identity in the Underworld he was
4:50
entering in 1950 Joe's life took a
4:54
significant turn when he was arrested
4:57
and temporarily confined to the king's
5:00
County Hospital Center where doctors
5:02
diagnosed him with paranoid
5:05
schizophrenia although stigmatized and
5:08
misunderstood at the time his mental
5:11
disorder was a constant in his life
5:14
affecting both his personal decisions
5:17
and his Infamous
5:18
activities his brothers Larry and Albert
5:22
Gallow were his closest criminal
5:24
partners and together they formed a
5:27
feared Trio on the streets their
5:30
brotherly Bond and natural inclination
5:32
towards delinquency made them a
5:35
formidable force in New York City beyond
5:38
their family Dynamics the social
5:40
environment in which they were raised
5:43
and the early crimes they committed
5:44

interests secretly owning several
9:24
nightclubs in Manhattan and two sweat
9:27
shops in the Garment District these
9:30
businesses not only increased his income
9:33
but also provided a facade of legitimacy
9:35
and a way to launder money from his

illicit activities in

1957 Joseph pratti assigned him and his
9:44
gang a high-risk mission to assassinate
9:48

become the notorious Gambino family this
9:59
operation was requested by Carlo Gambino
10:03
Anastasia's underboss who aspired to
10:06
replace his superia and needed prachi's
10:09
collaboration to execute his plan on
10:12
October 25th of that year Albert
10:15
Anastasia entered the barber shop at the
10:18

10:47
the Future boss of the profi family
10:50
Carmine perso claimed that he and crazy
10:54
Joe were the shooters joking that they
10:57
had been part of gallows Barbershop
11:00
quintet in
11:02
1958 the three criminal brothers were

by Robert Francis Kennedy was determined
11:22
to dismantle Mafia
11:24
operations John mclen elected senator
11:27
from Arkansas was a formidable force in
11:30
the fight against organized crime during
11:34
their visit to Kennedy's office Joe
11:36
Gallow displayed his audacity and
11:39
Charisma by flirting with Kennedy's
11:41
Secretary and remarking that the carpet
11:44
in the office would be perfect for a
11:47
dice game under the scrutiny of Justice
11:51
The Three Brothers arrogantly stood
11:53
there ground on the witness stand the
11:56
Gallow Brothers didn't Flinch
11:58
maintaining their silence and defying
12:00
the power of the law with the cold
12:03
stoicism characteristic of true Mafia
12:06
men Joe's relationship with Joseph
12:09
prachi was not one of blind loyalty he
12:12
always had an eye on his own ascent and
12:15
how he could increase his influence
12:17
within the criminal family he led his
12:20
ambition and ruthless character led him
12:23
to challenge prachi's leadership
12:26
triggering a series of events that would
12:28
shake the foundations of the crime
12:30
family this bold attitude was a key
12:34
factor in the conflicts that led to the
12:37
first internal strife within the prachi
12:40
family which eventually sparked the
12:43
first Columbo War Frank abatemarco a
12:47
captain in the family refused to pay the
12:50
monthly tribute that prachi demanded
12:52
from all his
12:54
soldiers this act of defiance was not
12:56
only difficult for prachi to accept but
12:59
also a significant financial blow as a
13:03
batam Marco controlled a lucrative
13:04
numbers game operation prachi's
13:07
insistence on receiving his tribute and
13:10
about Marco's refusal set the stage for
13:13
a violent and bloody power struggle
13:17
operating illegally in Red Hook Brooklyn
13:19
this illicit business brought in an
13:21
average income of $7,000 daily the
13:25
Gallow Brothers began to align
13:28
themselves with aatam Marco purportedly
13:31
encouraged by Family bosses Carlo
13:33
Gambino and Tommy lucazi and also
13:37
received support from Carmine perso by
13:40
then a prominent member of the family
13:43
however abat Marco was fatally shot in
13:47
1959 in what appeared to be a direct
13:49
order from Joseph prachi as retaliation
13:53
for his
13:54
Defiance a new escalation occurred on
13:58
February 27
14:00
1961 when Larry Joe and Albert made a
14:04
daring decision to kidnap four of Joseph
14:08
prachi's top men among the hostages were
14:12
underboss Joseph maglio Chief's brother
14:15
Frank prachi captain salvator musia and
14:18
Soldier John
14:20
Simone this direct Act of defiance aimed
14:23
to pressure prachi into negotiating a
14:26
more favorable Financial arrangement for
14:28
the Three Brothers Larry and Albert sent
14:31
Joe to California to keep him safe and
14:35
coordinate from a
14:36
distance however Joe Gallow known for
14:40
his brutality had even bloodier plans he
14:45
wanted to kill one of the hostages and
14:47
demand
14:49
$100,000 as a condition to start
14:52
negotiations his idea faced strong
14:55
opposition from his brother Larry who
14:57
preferred a less violent strategy after
15:01
weeks of intense negotiations prachi and
15:05
his consilier reached an agreement with
15:07
the Gallow securing the peaceful release
15:10
of the
15:11
hostages but the peace was
15:14
short-lived in midyear in a spirit of
15:17
Revenge Joseph prachi ordered the
15:20
murders of Larry and Joseph Jolie a key
15:23
member of the Gang The Killers under
15:26
prachi's command lured Jolie into a trap
15:30
with the promise of a fishing trip only
15:33
to brutally murder him Larry also became
15:36
a Target but survived a strangulation
15:38
attempt orchestrated by Carmine perso
15:42
and Salvatore de Ambrosio at the Sahara
15:45
Club in East
15:47
Flatbush a police officer intervened
15:49
just in time saving Larry's life this
15:53
failed assassination attempt marked
15:56
Carmine Pico's betrayal of the gall
15:59
who had previously allied with him
16:01
against
16:03
prachi before the strangulation attempt
16:06
the gang began referring to perso as the
16:09
snake for his betrayal the gang war
16:12
erupted with full ferocity resulting in
16:15
nine murders and three
16:18
disappearances Larry Joe and Albert
16:20
retreated to their headquarters while
16:22
the battle raged on during this conflict
16:26
perso was charged with the attempted
16:28
murder of Larry Gallow but the charges
16:32
were dismissed when Larry refused to
16:34
testify maintaining the mafia's Code of
16:37
Silence in November of that year crazy
16:41
Joe faced Justice and was convicted of
16:43
conspiracy and extortion shortly before
16:47
Christmas he was sentenced to serve
16:50
between 7 and 14 years in prison this
16:53
sentence marked a crucial point in his
16:56
life temporarily removing him from the
16:59
crime scene but not stopping the legend
17:02
he had begun to build in
17:05
1962 while serving his prison sentence
17:08
Joe's brothers and five other gang
17:10
members performed a heroic act that
17:12
briefly garnered positive media
17:15
attention Larry and Albert entered a
17:17
tenement building near their Hideout
17:19
that was on fire and rescued six
17:22
children and their mother the incident
17:25
was widely covered by the media
17:27
momentarily softened The Gallows
17:29
criminal reputation and portraying them
17:32
in a more human and heroic light despite
17:36
this brief positive image Joe continued
17:39
to be involved in criminal activities
17:41
during his time in prison he befriended
17:44
the African-American drug trafficker
17:46
Leroy Nikki Barnes who was serving time
17:49
for low-level drug trafficking Barnes
17:53
also had interactions with Matthew
17:55
Madonna a heroin trafficker associated
17:58
with the the kazy family always
18:01
strategic crazy Joe predicted barnes's
18:04
rise to power in the drug dens of Harlem
18:07
earning him the nickname Mister
18:11
Untouchable Nikki bnes began his
18:14
criminal career in the early
18:16
1960s focusing on building a heroin
18:18
trafficking Empire centered in Harlem he
18:22
controlled a significant portion of the
18:25
heroin trade and formed an organization
18:29
known as the council modeled after the
18:31
Italian American Mafia to oversee drug
18:35
distribution in Manhattan the Bronx and
18:38
Brooklyn the council was Notorious for
18:41
its brutality and its ability to
18:43
maintain control through violence and
18:46
intimidation Joe Gallo's friendship with
18:48
Barnes grew so strong that Gallow took
18:52
Barnes under his wing teaching him how
18:55
to enhance his criminal organization
18:58
this demonstrated Gallo's skill at
19:01
manipulating and shaping his environment
19:04
even from behind
19:06
bars in August 1964 Joe filed a lawsuit
19:11
against the Department of Corrections
19:13
claiming he had been subjected to
19:14
unusual and cruel punishments at Green
19:18
Haven after allowing a black barber to
19:20
cut his hair is the prison commissioner
19:24
characterized Gallow as a
19:26
confrontational inmate and troublemaker
19:28
but this incident only served to
19:31
strengthen his image as a man willing to
19:34
challenge the system during his time in
19:37
prison our protagonist showed another
19:40
side of his personality as he took up
19:42
watercolor painting and became an Avid
19:45
Reader delving into classic literature
19:48
he worked as an elevator operator in the
19:50
prison workshops and during a riot he
19:53
rescued a severely injured correctional
19:56
officer from a group of furious inmates
19:59
this act earned him favorable testimony
20:02
from the officer at a parole hearing
20:05
showcasing once again his ability to
20:08
Garner allies even in the most
20:10
unexpected places Donald franos a fellow
20:14
inmate described Gallow as a
20:17
conversational and charismatic man with
20:20
excellent verbal and oratory skills from
20:23
Franco's perspective Gallow could
20:26
describe the cutting of a man's throat
20:29
with the same eloquence as he engaged in
20:31
Lively discussions about classical
20:34
literature this duality in his
20:37
personality between the ruthless
20:39
gangster and the lover of culture
20:41
contributed to his myth and the
20:43
fascination he exerted over those around
20:46
him in May
20:48
1968 while still in prison Joe was
20:52
deeply affected by the death of his
20:53
brother Larry from cancer this blow had
20:57
a profound impact on him emotionally
21:00
Behind Bars Larry's death shifted the
21:03
power dynamics within the gang his
21:06
passing created a leadership vacuum and
21:08
increased pressure on Joe to maintain
21:11
control and group cohesion Joe Gallow
21:15
was released from prison in
21:17
1971 after nearly a decade with a
21:20
renewed perspective and a Relentless
21:22
focus on his future in organized crime
21:27
however an important part of this story
21:30
remains unclear what had happened with
21:32
the pratti family in the
21:34
1960s while crazy Joe served his
21:38
sentence during this time the prachi
21:41
family underwent significant changes in
21:44
1962 Joseph prachi passed away after
21:48
over 30 years leading the family
21:50
business leaving a power vacuum Joseph
21:53
Columbo took control of the family and
21:56
continued the battle against the
21:57
rebellious Gallow Brothers in May
22:01
1963 a squad of Gallow gunmen repeatedly
22:05
shot at Carmine Pico who miraculously
22:08
survived however by the end of the year
22:11
a peace agreement was reached through
22:13
negotiations with family boss Raymond
22:16
patriarcha bringing a temporary halt to
22:20
hostilities in that same year the mafia
22:23
commission discovered that Mago had
22:25
helped devise a plan to eliminate
22:28

the proach family which then became the

Columbo crime family by the commission's
22:48
designation however Colombo soon
22:51
distanced himself from Gambino by
22:53
establishing the Italian-American civil
22:56
rights League attracting significant
22:58
media attention at this time crazy Joe
23:02
was on the brink of being released his
23:05
second wife Cena described him upon his
23:08
release as a mere shell of the once
23:11
strikingly handsome man he had been upon
23:15
learning this Columbo and Joseph
23:18
jacobelli invited him to a peace meeting
23:21
offering him
23:24
$100,000 however Gallow claimed not to
23:27
be bound by the 1963 peace agreement and
23:30
demanded $1 million to settle the
23:33
dispute Columbo rejected the
23:37
proposal on June 28th

24:06
suspected crazy Joe of orchestrating the
24:08
shooting the police concluded that
24:11
Johnson acted
24:12
alone however suspicion persisted within
24:16
the family that Joe had ordered the
24:19
assassination tensions between Joe and
24:22
the Columbo family continued to escalate
24:25
with Joe steadfastly maintaining that he

on Joe Gallow acting under orders from
27:19
Mafia figure Russell buffalino Jerry
27:23
capei a journalist and Mafia expert

by others like former Columbo family
