Russell Bufalino Ran a Small Pennsylvania Family — But He Controlled the Whole American Mafia

On paper, Russell Bufalino ran a modest crime family out of northeastern Pennsylvania. In practice, his influence over the national Commission exceeded that of bosses who commanded far larger organizations. He is allegedly the man who authorized Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance. The Irishman gives him a prominent role without fully explaining how a small-town Pennsylvania boss accumulated that level of national authority. This documentary fills in that gap. #RussellBufalino #MafiaDocumentary #TrueCrime #OrganizedCrime #OutlawIcons #MobHistory #JimmyHoffa #TheIrishman #MafiaBoss #CrimeDocumentary #AmericanMafia #GangsterStories #FBIInvestigation #MobsterLife #TrueCrimeDocumentary
