In our affiliated series, we will profile the men and women who inhabit the world of organized crime and for our first installment, we present Tommy Pitera.



Tommy Pitera is a notorious American mobster who was heavily involved in organized crime during the late 20th century. Here is a summary of his life and criminal activities:
  1. Early Life: Tommy Pitera was born on December 2, 1954, in Brooklyn, New York. He grew up in a neighborhood with strong ties to the Mafia and became associated with the Bonanno crime family.
  2. Criminal Career: Pitera became a member of the Bonanno crime family, one of the five major Italian-American Mafia families in New York City. He quickly rose through the ranks due to his ruthlessness and violent tendencies.
  3. Drug Trafficking: Pitera was primarily involved in drug trafficking, particularly in the distribution of heroin. He was known for his brutal methods of enforcing discipline and eliminating rivals, earning him the nickname "Tommy Karate" because of his proficiency in martial arts.
  4. Violent Murders: Pitera was responsible for numerous violent murders, many of which were carried out with extreme brutality. He was known for dismembering his victims to dispose of their bodies, making it difficult for law enforcement to solve the crimes.
  5. Arrest and Conviction: In 1992, Pitera was arrested and subsequently convicted on multiple charges, including murder, racketeering, and drug trafficking. His arrest was the result of extensive law enforcement efforts to dismantle the Bonanno crime family.
  6. Life Sentence: In 1994, Tommy Pitera was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. His conviction was based on the testimony of former associates who had turned state's witnesses, as well as physical evidence linking him to the murders.
  7. Imprisonment: Pitera is currently serving his life sentence in a federal prison in the United States. He is considered one of the most dangerous and violent mobsters in American history.
Tommy Pitera's criminal activities and reputation for extreme violence have made him a notorious figure in the history of organized crime in the United States. His life story has been the subject of books, documentaries, and true crime discussions.
