In this episode, we uncover the most intriguing facts about one of the most legendary Mafia bosses, Joseph Bonanno.
He became a Mafia boss at just 26 years old, making him one of the youngest crime bosses in history. His rise to power was filled with ambition, betrayal, and secret plots to take over the Commission, but his plans ultimately backfired. In a mysterious turn of events, Bonanno disappeared in 1964—many believe he staged his own kidnapping to avoid testifying before a grand jury.
Despite being forced into retirement, Bonanno outlived nearly all of his rivals, dying peacefully at the age of 97. Was he a Mafia mastermind or a boss who went too far?
