This week we'll cover two high ranking members of the Genovese Family. Anthony Strollo also known as Tony Bender was a close friend and underboss of Vito Genovese and helped him plan the attempted assassination on Frank Costello. He eventually turned on Vito and he ended up "missing" in 1962. Thomas "Tommy Ryan" Eboli was a former Capo and became "acting boss" when Vito Genovese went to prison. However, it is said that there was a three man ruling committee at this time. When he borrowed $4 million from Carlo Gambino and didn't pay it back, he was murdered on July 16th, 1972.
