Santo Sorge
Santo Sorge (Mussomeli, January 11, 1908 – New York, May, 1972) was an Sicilian Mafioso living in the United States. His exact role has never been very clear; he was one of the great 'unknowns' of the Sicilian and American Mafia. He was one of the highest-level Sicilian Mafia leaders in his time. His counsel was sought in important decisions affecting the American Mafia as well. He traveled extensively between Italy and the United States.〔Dale Scott, ''Deep Politics and the Death of JFK'', p. 203-04〕
==Mafia career==
Sorge was a relative of Sicilian Mafia boss Giuseppe Genco Russo. His first problems with the judicial authorities go back to 1928 in his hometown Mussomeli for brawling and grievous bodily harm. The charges were dismissed when the peasant accusing him retracted, offering his apologies for causing trouble. In 1932 he was convicted in Paris (France) to six months incarceration and a fine of 1,200 French francs for forgery and using a false passport. A year later he was convicted in Gand (Belgium) to five months and 20,000 Belgian francs for fraud.〔Pantaleone, "Mafia e droga", pp. 131-37〕
Other sentences for fraud and bad checks followed in Palermo in 1937 and in Turin in 1939. In 1948 he was convicted to three years and four months on unclear charges for ‘political conspiracy’ in Florence (probably related to espionage〔). Meanwhile he moved to the United States.〔 He became a naturalized US citizen living in New York City,〔(Italy Seizes 10 in the Mafia Linked With Gang in US ), The New York Times, August 3, 1965〕 and maintained a respectable front in America, through directorships in front companies such as Rimrock International Oil Company of New York and the Foreign Economic Research Association.〔
