Vic Amuso, born in 1934 in Brooklyn, rose through the ranks of the Lucchese crime family to become one of New York’s most feared Mafia bosses. Alongside his ruthless ally Anthony "Gaspipe" Casso, Amuso took control of the family in 1986 through a violent coup, ruling with extreme paranoia and ordering numerous murders to eliminate any perceived threats. His reign was marked by brutal tactics, including the creation of a secret hit list and involvement in the notorious Windows Case, a multi-million dollar extortion scheme. After going on the run in 1991, Amuso was eventually captured and convicted of racketeering, extortion, and murder. Even behind bars, he continued to wield influence over the Lucchese family for years. His legacy as one of the last old-school Mafia bosses is defined by his violent rise to power, betrayal by his closest ally, and his enduring control from prison, making him a chilling symbol of organized crime’s bloody past.
