Charles 'Lucky' Luciano: Organizer of Organized Crime
No image
Born in Sicily, Charles Luciano immigrated to the U.S. In corrupt New York City, he united figures like Meyer Lansky and Ben 'Bugsy' Siegel to eliminate old-world mob bosses and formed the first crime syndicate, making the Mafia stronger than ever. After his banishment, 'Lucky' Luciano watched his empire decline under weaker leadership and hard drug dealing, never to return to the land he transformed.
