Murder, Inc.
Whitey Krakow or Krakower (died July 30, 1941) was a New York mobster who served as a hitman for Murder, Inc. during the 1930s. Because he had the same surname as Esta Krakower, the wife of fellow Murder, Inc. member Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel, Whitey was sometimes misidentified as her brother and Bugsy's brother-in-law when, in fact, he was not related to either of them.
