On this day in 1940 New York mobster and Paul Castellano‘s right-hand man, Thomas Bilotti was born. Bilotti served as underboss for just two weeks in the Gambino Crime Family which was the period after Aniello Dellacroce‘s death to his own death.

Bilotti was spectacularly gunned down in gangland style ambush, just before 6pm on the night of December 16, 1985.
