An American criminal
A boy from Brownsville
They began as children of punk trying to make a small score they could anyway. However, boys from Brownsville were promoted to the right arm of Murder Incorporated, the most hungry organization in American history.
In the early 1920s, brothers Shapiro dominated illegal acts in Brownville district of Brooklyn with Tekken. Mayer was secondly old and he went on a show. There was nothing under Mayer and he claimed that he had 15 brothels in Brownville.
"I am the boss of Brownsville," Mayer said to the person who suspected his influence.
Irving was the oldest Shapiro brother. It is not as bright as Meyer or it is not tough, but it is still considered to be the second responsible person. Willy was the youngest of the three, not too bright, nor too strict. It is not a good combination of Brownsville's way. Willy was basically considered a joke, and being fortunate to be born in the Shapiro family.
In the blowsville market, in addition to the operation of Bro's, Shapiros swept the market with illegal drinkers and illegal slot machines. Meyer paid tribute to the bigger gang boss from other parts of Brooklyn (Mayer was not considered a partner, but only the cost of business).
Mr. Meyer told his brothers. "We all got straight." "If we are in our backyard, we will not worry."
After that, young street punk named Ave "Kid Twist" race began to have an idea.
Reles' father Abraham was an Austrian Jew. A humble person who came to America to seek a better life. Upon arriving at the "Mountain of Gold", Abraham Rirez supported his family by making works at the Garment Center in Manhattan. Soon, he saved enough money to start his own business. Sell Nice with a cell phone stand on Brooklyn street. Abraham Rirez pushed from the street corner to the street corner, looking for the busiest place.
Abe Reles is a heavy threat of 5 feet 2 inches and has a strong hand with a length of 6 feet and he dislikes his father's honorable way of living. I quit school after 8th grade and decided to work as Gopher for Shapiros. Reles was used for the most despicable work. I have witnessed one of the slot machines owned by many Shapiro brothers. One day, Reles aimed Shapiro's slot machine (just a meat bruise) and took a bullet on his back. But this got the thought Reles.
He is his childhood friend Martin "Buggsy" Goldstein, "Why do we have to take the left wing?" Said Reles, "We should cut one of them with hell. . "
(In honor of the former New York City Jewish organized crime group named Max "Kid Twist" Zwerbach murdered in front of the Coney Island dance hall in 1908, Reles was nickname "Kid Twist"
Goldstein was a follower and Rirez was his peer Piper. Reles was a tough runt that they could kill with their best, but Golden Stein was the definition of street muscle. Reles snapped his finger, Goldstein aroused attention and did what Reles told him. Mr Reles decided that he and Goldstein should enter business for themselves. There is no big one. There are probably several slot machines and brothels for beginners.
However, Reles knows that Shapiros had too many people on the street, and that he needs to partner with the difficulties of the other streets to make his plan to realize It was. Reles told Buggsy that you should have a little visit to Happy and Dasher.
Harry 'Happy' Maionne and Frank 'Dasher' Abandanda was the second Italian who led the Ocean Hill Hooligans, a ruthless street gang who was managing books and operating a loan shake at the Ocean Hill in Brooklyn next door To Brownsville who was a famous person of. The two elder, Maoine was the boss. Abbandando - his second order.
"Dasher" got his nickname as he was a bold baseball player like Elmira Reformers who spent most of his youth. Indeed, people said that if there was a possibility that the fierce Abandondide was a professional baseball player, that was his wish. Movie star's handsome Dasher also had a few problems with women. He liked to rape them. A few years later, Dusher, who was waiting for the murder trial, admitted that he participated in dozens of rape, but specifically denied rape.
"It did not count," Dasher said. "I married her."
Dasher's usual murder form was ice sorting because it did not "make too much noise". But Dasher acknowledged that you must hold your hand over the victim's mouth while you are inserting an iceberg and have to erase the potential cry that is imminent It was.
On the other hand, Hao Maione was short and average. Buddy Eye seemed to have drilled a hole in the forehead of the injured man. In fact, happiness was called "happiness." Because it rarely crossed the smiling lip that protruded. Once, to slay those who said that Murder Incorporated needs to be killed, slim Maione dressed up like a sexy lady and knocked on his Mark's apartment door (of course, the light valve in the corridor After removing). The vampire who thought it was an attractive lover in the hole of his door (once Maione laughed, his eyes filled his false eyes were also pulled). As a result, Mark opened the door with a panting voice for the first date. As soon as the door was opened, Maione and his accomplices punctured some of the bullet holes into the victim and caused him to die considerably.
Abe imagines the average thugs like Happy and Dasher will be a grand partner in the acquisition of Brownsville racket. He approached Dasher for the first time.
"What happens when you book a bit? Reles told Dasher," Brown's Bill Buggsy and I, can bet here with you "
Dasher was not convinced that this was the right thing.
"I do not know, happiness with me is okay here," Dasher said. "And what about Shapiro? They will not like it.
"Let me worry about those butts," said Reles. "I am here for Kid Release.
Reles will hold a meeting between himself, Buggsy, and Happy and Dasher. Reles has reached that point correctly.
According to Reles, "These weapons can be taken.
Happy could be listening, but I was not eager to join the force.
"What are you thinking?" Happy said.
"If you listen, if you take the mob together, you will be able to overcome everything," said Reles.
Happy was not persuasive yet. He said, "Look, I am Ocean Hill's boss, I am left alone.
"You throw clothes with us and we all move," said Reles.
"Where would I fit if I did?" Happy said.
"Simple," We take care of Shapiros and take over, everything goes into the pot Brownsville, East New York, Ocean Hill - all.
Happy secretly hated Reles, Reles said he would think about it. Fortunately his master Luis Capone approached Reles's proposition. Capone (not related to Al Capone) was a restaurant manager in Brooklyn, but was closely tied to Mafioso like Joe "Adonis" Doto, Albert "Lord High Executioner" Anastasia. In Kapone, the knees were deep in the Loneshawking, and even some labor union racquets demonstrated their power.
Regional Prosecutor in New York City William Odwyer said that "Capone soaked his fingers against all the dirty crimes committed by the murder organization (Murder Incorporated, which is later in this book) Reles, Straus, Maione, Goldstein, There were few contacts with bosses such as Anastasia and Buchalter (Louie Lepke), but he was not the real head of the crowd. "
If Happy gave his blessing for the marriage of Happy and Reles, it should be the right thing. So, Happy formulated the Capone plan for Reles.
Without hesitation, Capone talked happily. "Really good, Hap"
Capone persuaded Happy to take another Capone's protein, which is 265 pounds of 5 feet 6 inches of cattle that can kill as easily as eating a meat ball sandwich. With this, the crew of Reles - Maione became a more valuable assassin in fighting Shapiros.
The alliance was formed and the gang of Abe Reles and Happy Maione was integrated into one powerful killer group. There were several skillful gunslingers in Shapiros, but with the addition of his new torpedo, the tide seemed to be favored by Reles.
The words about Reles and Maione's ambitions quickly spread around Brownsville, Meyer Shapiro was not so happy.
Mr. Meyer said, "Brownsville is ours," No one here enters here "
The first step in business was to approach the young punk called Joey Silvers (Silverstein), one of the dust Shapiros used for the small ones. He paid him to help Reles when he got ambushing Shapiros and had the opportunity to kill all three brothers at one location at a time. Soon Silvers contacted Reles, telling him that all three Shapiros were silent at the gambling house, they left soon and left them nasty with sneaky attacks.
Since there is no time to assemble the rest of the crew, Reles and Buggsy brought a new federation called George DeFeo. When they arrived at the gambling house, indeed, the Shapiros car was parked in front. Reles's plan picked up the tire with ice and pushed Shapiros when approaching the car. However, before Reles pulled out an ice pick, Shapiros set fire from the safety of the house. Buggsy took a bullet with his nose and Reles absorbed another in the stomach. DeFeo soon died.
Reles and Buggsy managed to make it safe. And with the help of a doctor, they slowly licked their wounds and began to think, along with Shapiros, how to remove Silvers for betrayal.
However, Reles was underestimating Meyer Shapiro's depravity.
One cool autumn evening, Meyer Shapiro jumped on his jalopy, scanned the streets of Brownsville and saw to hurt Reles, the most painful under the belt. While shopping at a local clothing shop she found a pretty young girl. That girl was Ave's 18 year old girlfriend "Kid Twist" Lily's.
Shapiro pushed the car to the curve. And before she knew what was happening, she was in Shapiro 's car and kicked out and shouted, but it did not match Shapiro - like robbery.
Shapiro drove with one hand, with his free hand he was beaten and submitted a girl. After that, she jumped out into a quiet area on the outskirts of Brownville and raped Abe Ries' girlfriend. If that alone is not sufficient, as an additional message, Shapiro hit the face of a young girl like a man with both fists. When the face of the girl was like blood, uplift, damaged mask, Shapiro opened the passenger door and kicked her out as it was dark. She was there for a while, dragged herself to the feet and returned to Brownsville. She talked about what happened to Reles, but her face told everything.
Reles was intense. The woman was beyond the limit.
Reles slowly painted his revenge.
The first order of Reles was to recruit another powerful soldier for the crew. Harry "Pittsburgh Philharmonic" Strauss, who was planning to become the most mad murderer in the history of Brownsville, even though it was not nationwide, he disregarded it. Strauss never existed in Pittsburgh (he just liked the name), he was called "Pick" by his friends. Mr. Strauss later said that he committed a murderer (he reported 100 to 500 deaths from anywhere). As William Audevill district prosecutor told you, I will kill. "
Strauss was an enthusiast as an artist of murder. He used any available weapons, but his favorite was the ice pick (like his brother Dasher) and the length of the rope. Strauss tied the victim with a truss from the ankle to the throat. until death.
Reles later said, "When we got Pep, we seem to put a whole new group.
Reles also recruited a nasty Irish murderer named "Blue Jaw" Magoon. He got his moniker from the fact that he was shadowing at 5 o'clock all day.
Reles healed from his wounds called for a meeting between Happy and both crew.
"What happens now?" Happy said.
"Well, there is a need to hit Shapiro, remember:" We should not only hurt them but they should go. " The first one is Meyer.
Shapiros knew they were hunters, but it was fortunate that Reles and his crew could not hit the side of the barn with a 10 foot shotgun. The following year, Reles and his boys attacked the city of Brownville, looking for Shapiros, especially Meyer Shapiro. They found 18th in Meyer and 18 bullets missed the mark. In the 19th attempt, Reese finally injured Shapiro and the two innocent bystanders, but the wounds were shallow and Mayer Shapiro was still running away.
In early July of 1931, Irving Shapiro relocated to Maiya on Monticello in the Catskill mountain range and visited Jack Seagull who was driving an illegal slot machine.
"You look a little unsettled, Meyer" said Arve. "Run and see if there is something I can do for Jack.
As he was tired of the clay dove for Reles' useless shooting gallery, Mayer agreed to take a break and breathe in clean country air.
By this time, Abe Reles had his long tentacle in Brownville and his ears were firm on the ground. A few minutes after Irv and Meyer Shapiro left the town, Reles knew the excursion of their country. He quickly assembled his crew and presented his plan.
"Card games are being held at Democratic clubs at Sheffield Avenue tonight, about eight people will come down here if we leave Monticello around 4:05, they eat Well, from 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock, they will be there if they come out. "
Reles was nearly accurate in his calculations. Around 1 AM Reles and his crew were loaded for a bear outside, Irv and Meyer Shapiro left the Democratic Club and headed for the car. The only problem was that about 12 other card players came out at the same time and formed a shield around the Shapiro brothers. Before Reles and his crew overwhelmed, Shapiro's brothers were safely in the car and gone.
Reles is hot and humid, but he was not deterred.
Reles said to his crew: "They will head there."
Reles and his man headed for 691 Blake Avenue. The apartment building where Shapiros lived. There were no cars of Shapiros anywhere.
"Good, we will defeat it here," Reles said. "Now we are waiting in the hall and do not forget that Meyer is going first.
They relaxed in the hallway of the apartment, removed the overhead light bulb and waited in the dark. Fortunately, there was no other residents entering the apartment, he decided that it was fortunate that Maiya Shapiro needed a good sake in a nearby bathroom.
"I do not think I will go home," Mayer told Aruva in the car. "I am still jumping up, throw me in the Cleveland bus, I will stay there all night.
Irv Shapiro entered the darkened front yard after stopping the car near the entrance of his apartment as his brother demanded. He realized that it was not Meyer Shapiro, which he wanted badly, but an avar. However, the rest of the crew began to fire. When the smoke ceased, Irving Shapiro hit 18 times and was hit by a tiled floor.
Scratch Shapiro's brother number one.
On July 19, 1931, Meyer Shapiro was walking along the church street in the Brooklyn district of New York and 58th Avenue East. A dark sedan was pulled next to him and three gunmen began shooting. Shapiro jumped into his car and tried to escape pursuing a sedan.
Police officer Harold Schreck was driving near him when he heard the shoot. He knew where the shot came from and found the dark sedan facing straight toward him. Not seeing Shapiro, who is running fast for his life, the police officer Shrek ordered to be handed over to the driver of the sedan, but the Sedan blew him off. Police officer Shrek made a U - turn, one driving a hand and the other quickly launching a gun in a sedan. Shrek quickly joined another police vehicle occupied by police officers Joe Fleming and Harry Phelps. The two police cars overtook the sedan to the track of a road car. The sedan slid down everywhere on the road and overturned several times, but it always regained balance. At one point, police officer Shurek found a pistol thrown from the car to the vacant lot of Sutter Avenue.
The pursuit ended with Livonia and Howard Avenues. There, three crewmembers jumped out of the car and tried to escape with their feet. The policeman jumped out of the two cars, caught three men, and was able to enter far away. The three men turned out to be Aveleres, Harry Strauss, Dasher Abandonddo who apparently lost their "rush" skills. The policeman discovered a shotgun that was cut near the sedan (stolen 6 days ago at the corner of Pitkin and Stone). It was clear that a hot shot gun was recently discharged from the hospital.
Three thugs were arrested, but refused to talk. The police had information that Reles and his boys would "give out" Meyer Shapiro, but the slightly injured Shapiro hid. There was no corpse and no one complained, so Brooklyn grounds attorney had to leave Reles and his man.
It is twentyfold that Shapiro survived in the Reles-led attack.
A few days later, Reles and Happy Maione chased Joey Silvers at the corner of Brownville Street and blew his head nearly completely from his shoulder nearby. However, Mayer Shapiro was pursuing "Deadeye" Reles and his boys hotly.
Meyer Shapiro judged that Brooklyn was too hot for him, so he quieted in Manhattan where he thought it was safe. And he was a while.
While in Manhattan, I thought his gang would shrink quickly and may be able to put himself up in Manhattan. There is also a small lending, a few slot machines, and possibly a little speaking seed that he can call himself. While trying to open a shop in Manhattan, Shapiro exposed himself to underground elements. It is not wiser to do for a man with bull's eye on his forehead.
On September 17, Shapiro drank a cup of Manhattan's speakeasy. It is not clear who discovered him, but soon Kid Twist, Happy, Buggy (a voice like three of seven dwarfs) kidnapped Shapiro, 7 Lower East Side on 7 Manhattan Avenue I took him to the seller. The next morning, the body of Shapiro was found in the basement. He was shot once behind the left ear at a very close distance, but this was confirmed by a deep burn with a bullet in Shapiro's skull.
Scratch Shapiro's brother number two.
As his plan was, Reles launched a fatal blow on its own and Reles could not make a mistake with his gun pressed against the head of Shapiro.
Despite the fact that Willie has disappeared from the city of Brooklyn, Willie Shapiro, who was committing to go out to get Reles and his crew, remained in Shapiro's gang It was all things.
Willy Shapiro is considered the weakest among Shapiro's brothers and is not a top priority for boys from Brownsville's job list. Reles and Maione were too busy at this point to embark on a career as a prize fighter and to strengthen the organization to make a lot of efforts to find Willie that was not so good.
By 1934, Willy Shapiro knew that he was dead if he tried to chase a man who killed his two brothers. He said to his sister Rose, "What is the use? I can not do it alone, I am out of the racket.
Willie turned out to have been waiting too long to announce retirement from criminal life. Reles and his boy were not actively seeking Willie, but he was an unfinished business and Reles hated unfinished business
On July 18, 1934, the day after Willie told her sister Rose, Beat Greenino met Lesless and Strauss at the corner of Brownsville Street. He told them, "I found Willie just in the vicinity of Helkima, you know, we are not doing anything now (meaning killing) Why are we bringing him up tonight Please do not go?
Reles and Strauss agreed to Gurino's evaluation and kidnapped Willie from the Brownsville bar in a few hours and Gurino owned Happy Maione and Happy's in-law Joe Daddonna and Rockaway Avenue's bar and grill in the basement Brought in went. There was awkward Gurino, Happy, Strauss, Dasher in the basement working on Willie. Beat was the most brutal, and when Willie finally became unconscious, Happy stopped celebrating. At least for a while.
"This crime has ended," Happy said.
That was a clue to run Strauss' s wonderful rope trick. "Pittsburgh Phils" trained Willy like a Thanksgiving turkey. I saw Willy 's death dance. When Willie got tired of stopping suffering, he told him that he died suffocating himself, and the murderer packed Willie into the washing bag to make it easier for him to carry the body. They threw the laundry bags into their car's trunk and headed for the dunes in the quiet area of Canarsie Flats. They threw laundry together with Willie on the sand and began drilling.
Later, residents of Canarsie who were in trouble sleeping decided to go for a walk near the sand dunes. Suddenly, I was surprised when he thought he detected movement on one of the top of the dunes. He walked a lot and found four men dug in the sand. Suddenly one of the men lifted his head and looked at the witness. It was happy, he cried, "Someone made us."
Four men ran towards the waiting car, returned to Brownsville, and had a celebratory meal at the Rockaway Avenue bar and grill.
The witnesses jumped out to the point where the man was digging and he found the washing bag in the half dug hole. He turned down and left the top of the bag open. And Williams were all trusses, they did not look much. The man rushed to the local police station, and when the police arrived soon, Willy Shapiro was really dead.
Scratch Shapiro Brother No. 3.
Willie's body was brought to the doctor and the doctor found sand in Willy's lungs. This means that Willie was buried alive.
Louis Capone as an intermediary to maintain peace between Reles and Happy and Boysville boys prospered. When Albert Anastacia needed a person who was killed, he told Kapone about this information. Kapone has signed a contract with Reles and Maione.
However, the boys from Brownsville's main source of income were Shyrock (loan of money with luxury amount), production (betting of illegal gambling at sports events), floating craps (dice) game, etc. . "Floating" craps games were held in the corner of the street and vacant lot. A more expensive game was run in a car garage, or a building that was empty at night.
Shy rock and the production of the book were operated from the back room of the Brownsville sweet shop "Midnight Rose".この店は、ダッパーとしてしか知られていなかったクルーのマイナーメンバーの1人であるRoseと名付けられた、厄介な老婦人が所有していました。ローズは法律によって彼女の設立を頻繁にしている人々のタイプについて数回悩まされました。
「なぜあなたたちはあなたの店でおばあちゃんを待っているのですか？」彼女は探偵によって尋ねられた。
"なぜ警察は彼らを守っていないのですか？"彼女は言いました。 「私の店に来る人を助けることができますか？」
ピッツバーグフィルと名付けられた人がいれば警察に尋ねられた。
"ピッツバーグ、シカゴ、サンフランシスコ...私はそれらについて何を知っていますか？"彼女は言いました。 「私はブルックリンから決して外に出ていませんでした。私が知っているのは、シラキュースの静脈があることです。私は病気の女性です。
ハーバート・リーマンニューヨーク州知事のジョン・ハーラン特別弁護士による1942年の腐敗報告では、1938年だけで40万ドル以上のローンがミッドナイト・ローズ自身によって処理されたと述べられています。
基本的にReles、Happy Maione、Pittsburgh Phil、その他の上層部のために行っていたBrownsville Boysの "盗難車部門"もありました。 Dukey MaffetoreやPretty Levineのようなティーンエイジャーは、「Blue Jaw」Magoonや盗まれた車の専門家Sholem Bernsteinのように定期的に車を盗んだ。いくつかの車は分解されて部品として販売されたものの、ほとんどが殺人契約の輸送手段として使われていましたが、この本の後半で、ブラウンズビル・ボーイズを最も効率的な魚雷としてタッピングした殺人者の団体である "Murder Incorporated"
ブラウンズビル・ボーイズは、イタリアのラッキー・ルチアノ、フランク・コステロ、ジョー「アドニス」ドト、ユダヤ人のギャングスター、メイヤー・ランスキー、バグジー・シーゲル、ルイス・ルイジアナを含む国家犯罪シンジケートで身長を上げたのはウィリー・シャピロ殺人の時代のころでした。 Lepke Buchalter、BuchalterのパートナーであるJacob "Gurah" Shapiroなどがあります。中間のルイス・カポネを経て、ブラウンズビル・ボーイズは数多くの殺人契約を交わし、ブラウンズビル・ボーイズはブルックリンでより多くの領土を与えられ、ラケットを運営した。
Brownsville BoysがShapiro兄弟を排除したことが、厳密に小規模タイマーから組織犯罪のメジャーリーグへの移行を促したことは間違いありません。
