Carmine and Ralph Palizzano were Italian-Americans who were born in the United States. Both of them served in the U.S. Army during World War II. My e-book looks at their criminal connections and the crimes they committed, primarily in the late 1950s. Both were part of a narcotics case in 1957 in which Mafia Don Vito Genovese was the primary defendant. The Polizzanos received drugs from Genovese and distributed them throughout America via couriers like Nelson Silva Cantellops, who testified against both brothers.
