BU 2-337 an Investigation has developed that the COTRONI re _ Brothers have controlled or played a major role in direct- ing all major criminal activities in the Montreal area, Previous reports have identified the members of the COTRONI organization, “In March of 1966, PETER A. MAGADDINO and DOMINIC ROMEO were reportedly in touch with VINCENT COTRONI and PAUL VIOLI in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. On November 28, 1966, the Montreal Police Depart- ment, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, arrested WILLIAM BONANNO, also known as Salvatore Vincent Bonanno, the son of JOE BONANNO, PATRICK and VITO DE FILIPPO, LOUIS GRECO, PETER NOTARO, CARL SIMARI and PETER JOSEPH MAGADDINO, a cousin ' of STEVE MAGADDINO who had been missing from his residence - on Grand Island, New York, for several years. These indi- viduals refused to furnish any information as to the purpose of their being in Canada. They were all subsequently deported from Canada, : On January 15, 1967, BU T-14 advised that VINCENT COTRONI of Montreal, Quebec, had in recent days been en- eo gaged in a number of meetings at Montreal. The informant A was of the opinion that this indicated some type of a meeting in the United States in the near future, which meeting would probably be attended by COTRONI, who had left Montreal for an unknown destination, According to informant, there is some ‘indication that COTRONI had been in difficulty with the "Magaddino Family" in Buffalo, New York, and there have been efforts on the part of COTRONI to negotiate some sort of settlement relative to these difficulties. It was suggested at one time that COTRONI, himself, might travel to the United States but when he apparently refused to do so, PAUL VIOLI was suggested as a possible intermidiary. VIOLI, however, according to BU T-1 refused to travel to the United States when assurances as to his safety were apparently not forthcoming. -1l1- F2-6°V%- 243/ Vor \e. DoclIda: 32307917 Page Ff

BU 92-337 According to BU T-14, COTRONI is a member of the "Bonanno Group," and there is speculation that this potential meeting could be to "bury the hatchet" by the "Bonanno and Magaddino Groups." LA COSA NOSTRA INTERNAL DISSENSION ‘In December of 1966, information was received from BU T-15 to the effect that PETER JOSEPH MAGADDINO had visited with JOSEPH BONANNO apparently to act as an © intermidiary between BONANNO and STEVE MAGADDINO, It was . conjectured that BONANNO was attempting to regain control of his former "Family" of LCN and have if sanctioned by the Commission through STEVE MAGADDINO, On October 20, 1966, BU T-16 advised that SAM PIERI continues to gain papularity with "the organization.” Informant stated that PIERI is more congenial and better able to solve the differences of the group then FRED. RANDACCIO, It was the informant's opinion that if any- thing happened to STEVE MAGADDINO in the near future, PIERI would stand a good chance of being elevated in the organization through some of the members. On August 25, 1967, BU T-4 advised that leader- . Ship in the LCN is still vested in STEVE MAGADDINO and that FRED RANDACCIO is next in line to assume command in the "Magaddino Family" as soon as his current legal dif- ficulties are resolved. On May 8, 1967, Buffalo City Police conducted a raid on a meeting being held at Panaro's Lounge, Buffalo, and arrested 37 individuals, including 17 LCN members, on charges of Consorting with Known Criminals. Among those arrested was FRED G, RANDACCIO, SAC — KAS SIT esp be . Doclda: 32307917 Page &
