Bio

Family Life

Married Helen Fanucci in 1950 and in 1951 had their first son, Michael. Five years later, their second son Steven was born.

Family Murdered and Betrayal

In 1968, Bruno's secretary Carol Hartington started leaking information about Bruno's inner workings to his rival gang. Over the next three years, Carol realizes her mistake and tries to rectify it by giving false information to the rival gang in hopes it will help Bruno gain an advantage in killing them and taking over. When the false information is found out by the rival gang head, he orders Carol to be killed. Helen and Steven are mistaken for Carol and Michael, and both are killed.

In June of 1974, Michael is given an anonymous tip on where his mother's and brothers' killer is. While gone, Bruno talks to his head bodyguard Dorian Haff about how upset he is over his wife and child's death and how he feels he can't go on any longer. Dorian mistakes this comment and shoots Bruno twice in the chest, killing him.

Michael returns home from trying to find his mother's killer and finds his father dead.
