Encyclopedia > Murder, Inc.

Murder, Inc., Murder Incorporated or Brownsville Boys, was the name given by the press for an organized crime group in the 1930s and 1940s that carried out hundreds of murders on behalf of the mob. The name Murder Incorporated was a journalistic invention. The credit for the title is usually given to Harry Feeney, a 1930s reporter for the old New York World-Telegram.[citation needed] The members of this syndicate usually referred to it as the Combination. Organized crime or criminal organizations are groups or operations run by criminals, most commonly for the purpose of generating a monetary profit. ... The New York World-Telegram was formed by the 1931 sale of the New York World by the heirs of Joseph Pulitzer to Scripps Howard, owners since 1927 of the Evening Telegram. ...

History

Murder, Inc., was established after the formation of the commission of the National Crime Syndicate, to which it was responsible. Largely headed by former Bug and Meyer Mob enforcers, it also had members from the labor-slugging gang of Louis "Lepke" Buchalter (who partnered with Tommy Lucchese) as well as from another group of enforcers from Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York, of the late 1920s led by Martin "Buggsy" Goldstein and Abe "Kid Twist" Reles. Lepke, in particular, and Joe Adonis occasionally, gave the outfit its orders from the commission, which were carried out under direct supervision of Gurrah Shapiro, who was assisted by Albert "Mad Hatter" Anastasia. The National Crime Syndicate was the name given by the press to a supposed loosely-organized organized crime syndicate, set up in the 1930s, by Charles Lucky Luciano and based in New York City. ...

In 1932, Abe Wagner informed on the syndicate to the police. He fled to Saint Paul, Minnesota and adopted a disguise to evade possible pursuit.

Most of the killers were Jewish and Italian gangsters from the gangs of the Brooklyn neighborhoods of Brownsville, East New York and Ocean Hill. In addition to crime in New York City and acting as enforcers for New York mobster "Lepke" Buchalter, they accepted murder contracts from mob bosses all around the United States.

Most Murder, Inc. murders were unsolved. Very often the killers, and sometimes even their victims, were strangers to the city where the murder took place, making them difficult to trace. Police would concentrate on local suspects when the killers were already en route to their hometowns. Targets included informants (including civilian informants) or gang members who had embezzled mob money, but gang members, particularly Reles, were known for casual murder as well. This article does not cite any references or sources. ...


The killers were paid a regular salary as retainer, plus an average fee of $1,000 - $5,000 per killing. Their families also received monetary benefits. If they were caught, the mob would supply the best lawyers.


One victim was gang boss Dutch Schultz, who had defied the syndicate. Mendy Weiss, Charles Workman, and an unidentified gunman named "Piggy" shot Schultz and his associates Otto Berman, Abe Landau, and Lulu Rosenkrantz on October 23, 1935, in the Palace Chop House in Newark, New Jersey.

In the 1930s, Buchalter used Murder, Inc. to murder witnesses and suspected informants when he was investigated by district attorney Thomas E. Dewey.

Demise

In January 1940, professional criminal and police informer Harry "Harry the Mock" Rudolph was held as a material witness in the murder of 19 year old minor gangster Alex "Red" Alpert. Alpert was shot in the back on a street corner in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn on November 25, 1933.[1][2] While in custody Rudolph talked with Brooklyn District Attorney William O'Dwyer. With Rudolph's testimony O'Dwyer secured first-degree murder indictments against Abe Reles, Martin Goldstein and Anthony the "Duke" Maffetore.[1][2] After the three were indicted, O'Dwyer learned that Rudolph was reportedly offered a $5,000 bribe by another prisoner, on behalf of the syndicate, to "put Reles and Goldstein on the street".[2] O'Dwyer stated that when Maffetore learned of the bribe offer to help clear Reles and Goldstein, and after several talks with New York City Detective John Osnato, he decided to turn state's evidence.[2][3] Detective Osnato talked with Maffetore even though he had worked with Rudolph previously and did not put much credibility in his story since Rudolph was paid for information in other cases that turned out to be false.[4] Eventually, Maffetore decided to cooperate, stating that he was not involved in the Alpert murder, but was the driver in six gangland murders.[4] Maffetore then convinced Abraham "Pretty" Levine to talk. Reles was next to cooperate with the District Attorney's office.[5] Soon after the trio started talking, numerous first-degree murder indictments were issued in Brooklyn, The Bronx, and in upstate Sullivan County (Catskills).[6] Additional members of the 'Combination' then were added to the list of cooperating witnesses including, Albert Tannenbaum, Seymour Magoon and Sholem Bernstein. Ironically, Harry Rudolph's testimony was never used in any of the trials as he died of natural causes in the infirmary at Rikers Island in June 1940.[7] This article or section does not cite any references or sources. ...

The Trials

  • Harry Maione and Frank Abbandando were the first members of the Brooklyn 'Combination' to be put on trial for murder. In May 1940, the trial started for the May 25, 1937 ice-pick murder of George Rudnick in a Brooklyn parking garage.[8][9][10] Harry Strauss was also indicted for the murder, and after initially agreeing to cooperate with the District Attorney's office, he was severed from the trial.[11] On May 15, 1940, Abe Reles testified that Rudnick was marked for death after Strauss claimed he had obtained information that Rudnick was a "stool pigeon for the police." Reles also testified that he waited outside the garage while Maione, Abbandando and Strauss were inside with Rudnick. After Rudnick was believed to have been murdered, Abbandando called for Reles and summoned Angelo "Julie" Catalano to the garage to assist with moving the body. Since Rudnick was still alive, Strauss resumed his assault with an ice-pick and Maione used a meat cleaver to complete the murder.[12] The next day, Catalano, who drove the automobile with Rudnick’s body, corroborated Reles' account of the murder.[13] "Duke" Maffetore and "Pretty" Levine testified that they stole the automobile that was used to dispose of the body.[14] Maione and 14 witnesses testified he was at his grandmother’s wake when Rudnick was murdered.[15] The funeral home undertaker and embalmer testified that Maione was not at the wake. [16] Also, one of Maione's chief witnesses admitted that he committed perjury as ordered by Maione's brother whom he feared. [17] On May 23, 1940, Maione and Abbandando were convicted of first-degree murder, which meant a mandatory sentence of death in the electric chair.[18] New York's highest court, the Court of Appeals, overturned the conviction on a 4-3 vote in December 1940.[19][20] The second trial started on March 10, 1941.[21][22] At one point during the trial Maione lost his temper and threw a glass of water at Reles.[23] Maione and Abbandando were convicted of first-degree murder for a second time on April 3, 1941.[24] Maione and Abbandando were formally sentenced to death for a second time on April 14, 1941.[25] The Court of Appeals upheld the second conviction on January 8, 1942.[26] Maione and Abbandando were executed at Sing-Sing prison on February 19th, 1942.[27]
  • Harry "Pittsburgh Phil" Strauss, and Martin "Buggsy" Goldstein were put on trial for the September 4, 1939 strangulation murder of bookmaker Irving ("Puggy") Feinstein, whose body was set on fire and left in a vacant lot.[28] The trial started in September 1940 with Strauss feigning insanity.[29][30] Abe Reles, the chief prosecution witness, testified that Feinstein was murdered on orders of Albert Anastasia since he supposedly “crossed” Vincent Mangano.[31] Reles testified that he, Goldstein and Strauss murdered Feinstein in his house. Reles’ mother-in-law also testified that Reles and Strauss had asked her for an ice-pick and clothesline earlier in the day, and while at the house, heard loud music masking a commotion in the living room. She also testified hearing Strauss say that he had been bitten. Goldstein’s former bodyguard/driver Seymour Magoon corroborated the story as he testified that on the night of the murder Goldstein told him that he along with Reles and Strauss had murdered Puggy Feinstein and that shortly after the crime was committed, Goldstein and "Duke" Maffetore burned the body.[32] Goldstein's attorney decided not to put up a defense. Strauss's attorney claimed his client was insane. Strauss was briefly allowed on the witness stand but refused to take his oath, and was "babbling incoherently" as he was led back to the defense table. Strauss then began chewing on a leather strap of a briefcase.[33] On September 19, 1940, Strauss and Goldstein were convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death in the electric chair a week later.[34][35] On April 24, 1941, Strauss and Goldstein's convictions were affirmed by New York’s Court of Appeals on a 4-3 decision.[36] Strauss and Goldstein were executed in the electric chair on June 12th, 1941.[37]
  • Charles ("Charlie the Bug”) Workman was indicted in New Jersey on March 27, 1940 for the October 23, 1935 murder of Dutch Shultz and three members of his gang.[38] Workman was extradited to New Jersey in April 1941.[39] The trial, which opened in June 1941 featured testimony from Abe Reles and Albert Tannenbaum as the primary witnesses against Workman. [40][41] Workman, in the middle of the trial, changed his plea from "not-guilty" to "no contest" after one of his chief witnesses, under pressure from the police, recanted testimony providing him with an alibi.[42] The same day Workman changed his plea, he was sentenced to life in prison.[43] Workman was paroled on March 10, 1964 after serving 23 years in prison.[44]
  • Irving "Knaldes" Nitzberg, who was "imported" by the Brooklyn “Combination” from the Bronx, was put on trial for the January 9, 1939 murder of Albert ("Plug") Shuman in Brooklyn based on the testimony of three accomplices, Abe Reles, Albert Tannenbaum and Seymour Magoon. Reles testified that Shuman was killed since he cooperated with the authorities who were conducting an inquiry of Lepke’s involvement in labor racketeering.[45] Reles also testified that he helped plan the murder of Shuman with Lepke, who at the time, was a fugitive, and Mendy Weiss, and that Lepke received approval from Albert Anastasia to use a person who lived outside Brooklyn to help with completing the assignment. Seymour Magoon testified that he stole the car used in the murder on Reles’ orders.[46] Albert Tannenbaum testified that he was the driver that picked up Nitzberg and Shuman under the pretense of performing a robbery. Nitzberg, who was in the back seat, shot Shuman twice in the back of the head when Tannenbaum gave a predetermined signal. Tannenbaum and Nitzberg then exited the murder car to join Reles and another gangster in the getaway car and departed from the crime scene.[47][48] Nitzberg was convicted of first-degree murder on May 23, 1941 and sentenced to death in the electric chair.[49][50] However, on December 10, 1941, the conviction was overturned on a 4-3 vote by New York's Court of Appeals, which questioned the use of testimony of non-accomplice witnesses, who were promised leniency, to support the testimony of Reles, Tannenbaum and Magoon.[51][52] Nitzberg was tried a second time in 1942 with the now-deceased Reles' testimony read to the jury.[53] Nitzberg was convicted for a second time on March 12, 1942.[54] The conviction was overturned again by the Court of Appeals on a 4-3 vote, but this time the court also dismissed the indictment as faulty since the only testimony presented to the Grand Jury was from accomplices without corroboration.[55][56]
  • Louis Lepke, Weiss, Louis Capone and Philip ("Little Farvel") Cohen were indicted for the murder of candy-store owner Joe Rosen. Rosen was murdered in Brooklyn on September 13, 1936.[57] Cohen had his murder indictment dropped prior to the start of the trial after his conviction on a federal narcotics charge and received a 10 year sentence.[58] Jury selection for the trial began in August 1941. However, securing a jury for Lepke proved difficult. After enough jurors were finally selected, the trial actually started in October 1941.[59] The trial featured the testimony of Rosen’s son, a teacher, and underworld turncoat Sholem ("Sol") Bernstein, who was marked for death after refusing to carry out a murder contract on Irving "Big Gangi" Cohen who fled to California after the murder of Walter Sage in 1937. [60][61][62] Lepke, Weiss and Capone were convicted on November 30, 1941.[63][64] The Court of Appeals upheld the murder convictions of Lepke, Weiss and Capone in October 1942 on a 4-3 vote.[65] The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear Lepke's appeal in Feb 1943.[66] In March 1943, the Supreme Court reversed its earlier decision and granted a review to Lepke, Weiss and Capone.[67] The Supreme Court upheld the conviction in June 1943.[68] Before Lepke could be executed, New York State needed the federal government to turn Lepke over as he was currently serving a 14 year sentence in federal prison.[69] Lepke continued to vigorously appeal his death sentence in New York and transfer from federal custody.[70] Lepke, Weiss and Capone were executed in Sing-Sing prison on March 4, 1944.[71]
  • Vito "Socko" Gurino, a 275 pound gangster, was sought for questioning in the Brooklyn murder investigation as the member assigned to eliminate witnesses against the “Combination.” [72] First, Gurino attempted to silence a small time gangster and eyewitness to the George Rudnick murder.[73] Police picked up Angelo ("Julie") Catalano on the streets of Brooklyn, shortly after being bailed out by the syndicate, as Gurino tried to convince him to "hide out" on Long Island.[73] Several days later, Gurino used a contact, corrupt Queens County Deputy Sherriff William Cassele, to enter the County’s civil prison on the night of March 29, 1940.[72] Cassele then forced Joseph (“Joe the Baker”) Liberto, who was being held as a material witness in the George Rudnick murder, to meet with Gurino.[72] According to Liberto, he was pushed up against a wall in his cell and threatened with death if he cooperated with the District Attorney.[72] Liberto was taken into custody shortly after an acquaintance drove him to a farmhouse on Long Island. Liberto quickly exited through a window convinced he was going to be killed.[72] Gurino, who was hiding out in New Jersey for much of 1940, was arrested on September 12, 1940 at the Church of the Guardian Angel in Manhattan screaming hysterically in fear for his life.[74] Shortly after being arrested, Gurino confessed to three syndicate murders and implicated himself in four others.[75] In March 1942, Gurino pled guilty to three murders.[76]. In April 1942, Gurino was sentenced to 80 years-to-life in prison.[77]
  • Jacob ("Jack") Drucker and Irving ("Big Gangi") Cohen, were put on trial separately for the murder of racketeer Walter Sage in the Catskills.[78][79] Sage was killed with an ice-pick and had the frame of a slot machine tied to his body, which was found in Swan Lake on July 31, 1937. After the murder, Cohen fled to California believing he was also going to be killed and managed to secure small roles in films.[80][81][82] According to the chief prosecution witness Abraham "Pretty" Levine, Sage was riding in a car with Cohen and Drucker when he was stabbed 32 times with an icepick as Levine and Harry Strauss were following in another car. Levine also testified that he observed Drucker wiping the ice-pick clean before helping dispose of the body.[83] Cohen testified in his own defense, and was acquitted on June 21, 1940.[83] Drucker was a fugitive for over three years until the FBI located him in Delaware.[84],[85] Drucker was convicted of second-degree murder on May 5, 1944 and received a sentence of 25 years-to-life.[86],[87] Drucker died in Attica prison in January 1962.[88]

After the Trials

With many of its members sent to the electric chair or prison, Murder, Inc. vanished within a few years.

  • Duke Maffetore and Pretty Levine received suspended sentences after pleading guilty to petit larceny in the theft of an automobile used in a gangland murder.[100]
  • NYPD Lieutenant John Osnato, who convinced Duke Maffetore to cooperate with the Brooklyn District Attorney's office retired in June 1944 after 28 years on the police force. He died of a heart ailment at age 55 on November 25, 1945. [101]
  • Philip ("Little Farvel") Cohen was murdered in 1949, several months after being released from federal prison. Cohen had served seven years of a 10-year sentence for narcotics trafficking.

Murder, Inc. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (606 words)
Murder, Inc., as it was called by the press, was a chapter of a so-called National Crime Syndicate in the USA.
Murder, Inc. was established in Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York, in the late 1920s by Joe Adonis, and initially led by Martin "Buggsy" Goldstein and Abe "Kid Twist" Reles.
The Murder, Inc. idea was based on the fact that killers would be strangers to the city, and sometimes even their victims, and therefore harder to trace.
