John DiFronzo (born December 13, 1928), known as John "No Nose" DiFronzo is a Chicago mobster and the reputed boss of the Chicago Outfit. ==Criminal history == DiFronzo stands 5'10 and weighs 170 pounds. In 1950, he served two years in prison for burglary. He is the brother of Joseph DiFronzo, born November 25, 1934, and Peter DiFronzo, born May 13, 1933. He is a former enforcer and caporegime, and was convicted along with Chicago boss Samuel "Black Sam" Carlisi on federal racketeering charges in 1993. The conviction was reversed on appeal, however, and DiFronzo was released from prison in 1994. DiFronzo's criminal record began in 1949. He got the nickname "No Nose" because he sliced off part of his nose while jumping through a window during a 1949 clothing store burglary. Reportedly, the police gave him back the nose part which was almost perfectly restored.〔Roemer "Accardo, The Geniune godfather"〕 DiFronzo was a suspect in the unsolved 1952 murder of Charles Gross, a West Side politician with suspected ties to organized crime. He was a member of the "Three Minute" Gang, and identified as a member of a loansharking operation along with former Chicago police officers Albert Sarno and Chris Cardi in 1964. Imprisoned syndicate leader Joseph Aiuppa chose DiFronzo to head criminal operations in Chicago's western suburbs over acting syndicate boss Joseph Ferriola. Eventually, he became one of several de facto leaders running The Outfit in Chicago. He has a made man brother named Peter DiFronzo who was convicted of warehouse burglary. In 2009, John DiFronzo, Rudy Fratto, and several others were named in a civil lawsuit by Joseph Fosco, the son of late Teamsters treasurer Armando Fosco, alleged to have tried to extort $400,000 from Fosco. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John DiFronzo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
