Andrew Alberti was a prominent member of the Gambino syndicate from the 1950s until his death in 1964. Alberti was a player in a 1953 narcotics ring that was busted in Manhattan. The leader of the drug syndicate was Jean David aka the Silver Fox Laget. Laget was wanted for the 1937 murder of a banker in France. Alberti's father, Frank, was also active in the Gambino family organization. Authorities surmised that Andrew had assumed control of many of his taxi driver dad's criminal rackets.
