Another mafia murder took place in Illinois late night December 2nd as Capone – a former capo in American Corleone family, was killed as an attempt for high ranking mafia dons to set an example of what happens to those who disobey orders.
Mr.Capone – an eager capo, had left his family to venture off and start his own thing, despite being told by Bocephes1971 – his boss, and Michael Corleone – the capo di tutti capi, to wait until he earned loyalty and got stronger. He bought his way out of the family and started his own thing anyway.
All mafiosos know what happens to those who disobey orders, yet many like Capone have done so anyway.
Later that night Goodfellas – the boss of the New Jersey Outfit, stopped in at a local Illinois bar and was having a few drinks when he noticed a group of wiseguys sitting around. He looked to see what all the commotion was and he noticed it was the new boss Capone. Goodfellas signaled him over and they had a chat, in which Goodfellas asked why he did this. Capone apparently told Goodfellas; because there should be no problem with him starting his own thing and he needed no auth.
Goodfellas told him he was going to paint his walls red, but Capone just laughed and smiled, so Goodfellas storming out furious. Capone had not known there was a new group of hitmen – Murder Inc, brought to the streets lead by Goodfellas to protect the AMFU (American Mafia Families Union).
Later that night, as Capone got to his hotel room there were shots heard but it wasn’t until the following morning that Capone’s body was found by housekeeping. His brains were all over the wall only a few feet from the drawer were he hid his handgun.
The police dont know if Capone was the first of many hits by the vicious group Murder Inc or just a local wiseguy taking out a boss to get his name out there.
