"You can get much further with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone." - Al Capone

They are the men whose life stories read like the script of a Hollywood gangster movie: made men, Mafiosi... mobsters.It is a profession where promotion can be achieved at the pull of a trigger and where the spoils of success can be unimaginable wealth. Yet, it is also a way of life where your closest allies may prove to be your most dangerous foes, and where the penalties for failure can mean life in prison, or even worse.
Discover the true stories behind the mob legends who have ruthlessly clawed and fought their way to their own precarious versions of the American Dream. This fascinating collection explores the lives of some of the most notorious gangsters in recent history: their rise to power, the rich details of their criminal operations and, inevitably, their downfall.
Explore the sinister history of Murder Inc., the syndicate of assassins that rose to fame in the 1930s, and discover the little-reported world of women in the Mob, including Karen Hill and Arlyne Brickman.
Take a closer look at the true stories behind infamous names such as New York's John Gotti and Frank "Superfly" Lucas, Boston's James "Whitey" Bulger, Philadelphia's Nicky Scarfo and New Orleans Carlos Marcello
Featuring such legendary figures as Whitey Bulger, John Gotti, and Murder, Inc., Mobsters investigates their violent lives, their struggles to grab and hold on to power, wealth, and prestige, as well as their violent deaths as justice prevails.

11)  Roy DeMeo
Roy DeMeo was a member of the Gambino Crime Family through the 1960's to the early 1980's. Roy was first spotted by Gambino associate Nino Gaggi who tempted him into the family through loanshark projects. Over time he would lead his own crew, known as the DeMeo crew who were suspected of killing over 200 people in a ten year spell from 1973 until 1983. Killings performed by DeMeo and his troop would rival that of Brooklyn's Murder Inc. of the 1930s.
