Vincenzo Aloi

This article deals with Vincent Aloi , not to be confused with Vincent Alo , another mobster of "La Cosa Nostra".

Vincent "Vinny" Aloi (* 1923 in Florida ) is an American mobster of the La Cosa Nostra and was the head of the Colombo family .

Vincenzo Aloi is the son of Sebastian "Buster" Aloi, a former Capo regime of the Profaci family . He is the brother of the mobster Benedetto “Benny” Aloi, a former “underboss” of this criminal family. He was also the godson of the former boss of the Gambino family Carlo Gambino .

On November 19, 1970, Aloi was arrested for his involvement in the illegal acquisition of an investment company in Miami, Florida .

After Joseph Colombo was shot in 1971 and fell into a coma , Aloi briefly became the head of the Colombo family. According to another reading, he was never the head of the family, but the "acting boss" of the family and Carmine Persico has been head of the family since 1972 (until today).

On June 26, 1973, Aloi was convicted of perjury. He allegedly lied to authorities in connection with an investigation into the murder of Joe Gallo. He was later sentenced to nine years in a state prison.
