"The last days of the Roman Empire, if it were populated by snitches, gamblers, mobsters, lowlifes, and homicidal maniacs. In other words, this book is entertaining as hell. In chronicling one small, parochial, though notorious faction of the American Mafia in Springfield, Massachusetts, Arillotta tells the story of the whole damn thing. South End Syndicate is a worthy addition to any organized crime bookshelf."

—T. J. English, New York Times bestselling author of The Westies, The Corporation, and Dangerous Rhythms





On a hot November day in 2003 in Springfield,
Massachusetts, local Genovese family captain “Big Al” Bruno got shot five times
with a .45 caliber handgun as he walked out of the Our Lady of Mount Carmel
social club—a lit cigar smoldering next to his lifeless body. Since Vito
Genovese took his empire north from New York City, a string of mobsters dating
back a hundred years have operated in the Greater Springfield area. With this
migration came murders, mayhem, treachery, criminal trials, and constant corruption.



Not until 2010 did authorities charge new Springfield Genovese
boss Anthony “Bingy” Arillotta with Bruno’s murder. At the time, Arillotta’s
connections spanned the Northeast—from the Patriarca family in Rhode Island to the
Angiulos in Boston to the Gambinos and Bonannos in New York, and from Billy
Grasso and Whitey Tropiano in New Haven to Whitey Bulger’s Winter Hill Gang. During
his seven-year reign, Arillotta had beautiful women, total power, and millions
in cash. But it eventually came with a devastating price.



South End Syndicate tells
the untold story of a young man infatuated with Springfield wiseguys who rose
from being a street criminal to becoming his city’s Mafia boss. How did a young
Italian-American kid from Springfield work his way up the chain to become a
Made wiseguy in charge of Western New England? Arillotta, now a free man, tells
a timeless tale of power, money, and murder. 

Anthony Arillotta is the former boss of the Springfield, Massachusetts, faction of New York City's Genovese crime family.  Joe Bradley is a former gang-unit cop in Springfield, Massachusetts, with a Master's degree in criminal justice. He lives in Connecticut with his family.
