In this short, we discuss Santo Volpe.

Santo Volpe was in fact from around 1908 until the early 1930’s, considered to be the Mafia Don of the Pittston, Pennsylvania mob, the forerunner to what would become the Bufalino Crime Family.

At some point we’ll do a story on him as he was involved in some serious stuff including the murder of the sitting boss of Pittsburgh in the early 1930’s, a man named John Bazzano.

According to FBI sources, Santo Volpe was the self-titled “king of the night,” recognized leader of the Sicilians and had as lieutenant's Joseph Barbara and Angelo Polizzi who were in the bootlegging racket having strong connections with the national combine and Charles “Lucky” Luciano himself.
